Av Freeman grew up the youngest of five in rural Missouri, split between a mother struggling with addiction and a cash-poor father. No A/C, no consistent food, no plan beyond surviving the next week.
At fifteen he found his older brother dead from suicide. He responded the only way he knew how: he channeled his grief and started recording. Over the next two years, he
wrote and released more than 100 songs while moving furniture by day and recording until 4 AM. His TikTok “Broke Boyfriend” series — a sketch comedy series he started on the platform — amassed over 160 million
views and helped him build a large audience that fell in love with his personality and sense of humor. In 2024, his father died by suicide. Av wrote "I'd Rather Overdose" on the drive home. That song changed everything.
