Who is Hunxho
In a 2022 interview with HotNewHipHop, Hunxho spoke about his upbringing.
I’m from Atlanta, the Eastside of Atlanta. I’m from Glenwood to be exact, but Second Avenue my hood. That’s where I started to find myself at. But as a kid, I came up on Glenwood.
About his Atlanta influence:
It ain’t even really me growing up in Atlanta, it’s just me finding my own way. I had to figure out a lot by myself. I had a mom in the house, but I really didn’t have no pops in the house, so a lot of stuff I had to teach myself. Like, there ain’t too much a mama can teach you.
About his name and how it’s spelled
I came up with it when I was young. When I was young, I was probably like… I’m 22 now, I came up with it when I was like in 6th grade. So you asked about the “X” in my name right? It’s a long story, man. It was around the time when folks was gangbanging hard, you know what I’m saying. The regular Huncho might be spelled “huncho,” but around that time I was spelling everything with a “x,” but then I just stuck with it.
Hunxho has a son Xhosen (2 at the time of the interview), the same name as one of his mixtapes.
I named the tape Xhosen probably because I feel like I’m chosen, you feel me? A lot of stuff be happening in my life that will tell me that I’m chosen.
That’s one of the reasons I named my son Xhosen. I spell it the same way the tape spelled — his name spelled like that on his birth certificate. Like it came up like my name, Hunxho, so I just made his name Xhosen. Sometimes they call me “Xho” and they call him “Lil Xho.” Both are actually spelled the same way.
It means a lot to me, a whole lot. I wish I had my dad in my life growing up. I always told myself I couldn’t be like what my daddy was to me to my kid. I always gotta be there.
When we were growing up, my momma’s side always stressed the importance of family.
Family meant a lot, so we were real close. All the men on my momma side, they all in their kids’ lives — ain’t none of that going on.
They all in their kids’ lives, their nephews, and nieces. My uncle was more like a father figure to me when I was growing up ’cause my daddy wasn’t.
