Rapper Jeremy Saunders, better known as 2-Pistols, was born on June 11, 1983 to Maefrancis and William Lee Saunders Jr. He was an 80s baby, raised in a small urban town, Tarpon Springs, which is about 30 to 45 minutes away from Tampa, FL. Growing up as a child was very hard for Jeremy because his mother, father, and oldest brother Anthonye, were in prison for more than 60% of his life. As a kid, he dreamed of playing pro-football, but he was only 57 a 145lbs. Although he rushed 1,700 yards as a senior at Tarpon Springs High School; it just didnt happen. His girlfriend at the time got pregnant and his baby girl Shaniya was born in May of 2001. He was just a baby himself, raising a baby of his own. That same year, he began to get more serious about music. He used to be in a work experience program called OJT that allowed him to leave school and work in his studio, which his second oldest brother William Saunders funded. William was the one that put the fire into his younger brother to look at the bright side.
