Big Sean on pursuing music and being supported by his family

In August 2025, the rapper sat down with Jay Shetty on the latter’s podcast to discuss various moments from his life. Shetty asked him about the time he felt so worried that it affected his creativity and spirit. Big Sean said:

“I used to let the things I can't control, control me. You know what I mean? And it was very conditional. It was something that it's impossible to be successful in the business of pleasing everybody. Like just something that you might as well let go of now. And if you do please everybody, you're probably not going to be pleasing yourself.”

Big Sean went on to say:

“I do feel that especially in entertainment and when you get an opportunity to be you, you got to understand like since I was 10, 11 years old, all I wanted to do was like be a rapper. That was like the only thing that I like wanted. And I did super good in school. I come from like a family of scholars. My mom is an English and social studies teacher.”

Big Sean said his grandmother was one of the first female captains of the Second World War. He said his grandfather was also in the Second World War. Despite being good in academics, he knew he wanted to make a career in music. He said his family respected his decision and even supported him. This made him realize that kids should not be controlled.
