Old Man Saxon, aka Saxon Kincy, started rapping as an eleven-year-old at Denver's Smiley Middle School. "I would rap-battle at lunch," he remembers. "I was relatively quiet, but I saw the attention that I got being able to put words together. Eventually it grew into not doing it for attention, but because I found some sort of peace in it." After graduating from the University of Colorado Boulder, he moved to Los Angeles and has been making music professionally for about eight years.
