Born in California but raised in Detroit, rapper Big Sean made big news in 2007 when he signed with Kanye West's recently formed GOOD Music label.
Sean had met West through a hip-hop radio station in Detroit; he was just trying to impress the superstar by displaying his freestyle skills, but after Sean's in-studio performance, West offered him a recording contract and helped set up his debut mixtape, Finally Famous, Vol. 1, released in 2007.
