Born Cedrick Leonard in Talbotton Georgia. Bohagon came into the hip hop game in 97 via so so def recordings hooking up with lil jon while jon was a a&r at the label. His first professional song was a song called "unn huh" on the so so def bass allstarts vol 2 that went on to sell 500,000 albums. He returned the next year for volume 3 with a song called "drop them boes" featuring lil jon and the eastside boyz. He would remain under Lil jon's wing for the next 10 years producing and writing behind the scene.
