Early life

Ferreira was born in Chicago, Illinois to parents under 21 who were high school dropouts. Shortly after his birth, he moved to Saco, Maine, where he would spend most of his early life. Here, at age 12, he was introduced to hip hop through his uncle, who showed him Nas. For high school, Ferreira moved with his father to Kenosha, Wisconsin. He participated in theatre in school and was always working on hip hop out of school. By the time he got to college, Milo had been to 13 different schools. He first began rapping as part of the Kenosha and a Wisconsin hip-hop trio Nom de Rap, which additionally consisted of rappers Nicholas J and AD the Architect. Following high school, he attended St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin for Philosophy, before he dropped out to pursue a music career. Ferreira is a vegetarian.

Name

Milo has said he came up with his name at age 16 after reading the book The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, although in a separate interview with everydejavu he states that his name is an acronym for "maybe i like owls", in reference to his first rap name being "wise owl, himself".
