He released his debut mixtape, Psychological: The Mixtape in December 2009 under the name Psychological, after which it was shortened to simply Logic. He gained popularity following his Young Sinatra (2011) mixtape series; its third installment, Young Sinatra: Welcome to Forever (2013) received critical acclaim and led him to secure a recording contract with Def Jam Recordings. Logic's first two studio albums—Under Pressure (2014) and The Incredible True Story (2015)—both peaked within the top five of the U.S. Billboard 200 and received platinum certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).{{cite web |title=LOGIC – UNDER PRESSURE |url=https://www.riaa.com/gold-platinum/?tab_active=default-award&ar=Logic&ti=Under+Pressure#search_section |publisher=Recording Industry Association of America |access-date=26 December 2020}}

Logic achieved his furthest success and mainstream recognition with his third album Everybody (2017), which peaked at number one on the Billboard 200 and was supported by the Billboard Hot 100 top-three single "1-800-273-8255" (featuring Alessia Cara and Khalid).{{cite magazine|url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/6260934/logic/chart|title=Logic – Chart History|magazine=Billboard |access-date=September 17, 2017}} His fourth and fifth albums, YSIV (2018) and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2019) were met with similar commercial success; the latter contained the single "Homicide" (featuring Eminem), which peaked at number five on the Hot 100.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/artist/logic/chart-history/hsi/|title=Logic – Chart History: Billboard Hot 100|magazine=Billboard|access-date=February 15, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200216041956/https://www.billboard.com/music/logic/chart-history/HSI|archive-date=February 16, 2020|url-status=live}} After his sixth album No Pressure (2020), Logic retired from music;{{Cite magazine|date=2020-07-24|title=Logic Reveals Why He's Retiring From Hip-Hop and Shares Plans to Give Away Free Beats to Aspiring MCs|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/9423792/logic-no-pressure-interview-retirement|access-date=2020-07-27|magazine=Billboard}} however, his career would continue with the release of his seventh mixtape Bobby Tarantino III (2021). His seventh album, Vinyl Days (2022) was his final release with Def Jam. His eighth and ninth albums, College Park (2023) and Ultra 85 (2024) were released independently.

Logic has received two Grammy Award nominations. As an author, he released the novel Supermarket (2019), which was accompanied with a namesake soundtrack album.

Between his father and mother, he has seven half-siblings.{{Cite AV media|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74ze2Fq-G4k|title=Logic Tells His Story, Looking White, Using the N-Word, & 1st Album Being Strictly for Hip-Hop Heads|date=2014|type=video|publisher=Sway's Universe|minutes=4:00–4:16}} Logic spent much of his youth in the West Deer Park neighborhood in Gaithersburg, Maryland. His father suffered from a cocaine addiction and his mother suffered from alcoholism.{{cite journal|last=Fleischer|first=Adam|title=Show & Prove: Logic|journal=XXL Magazine|date=July–August 2012|volume=16|issue=5|page=38}} Despite his father initially being absent in his childhood, Logic was able to reconnect with Hall due to his burgeoning rap career. During his early adolescent years, Logic witnessed his brothers produce and distribute crack cocaine to "addicts all over the block",{{cite web|last=Nguyen|first=Michael|date=May 17, 2013|url=https://hiphopdx.com/interviews/id.2108/title.logic-details-aligning-with-no-i-d-def-jam-while-maintaining-his-lyrical-approach|title=Logic Details Aligning With No I.D. & Def Jam While Maintaining His Lyrical Approach|publisher=Rappers Talk Hip Hop Beef & Old School Hip Hop|website=HipHop DX|access-date=August 12, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160919161653/http://hiphopdx.com/interviews/id.2108/title.logic-details-aligning-with-no-i-d-def-jam-while-maintaining-his-lyrical-approach|archive-date=September 19, 2016|url-status=live}} including to his father.

He attended neighboring Gaithersburg High School. However, he did not graduate and was soon expelled after he began skipping classes in the tenth grade. Logic would comment on the expulsion, stating "I started doing badly and failed every class but English, so they kicked me out of school, they gave up on me."{{cite web|last=Smith|first=Greer|title=Montgomery County rapper rises to fame|url=http://www.thechurchillobserver.com/top-stories/2012/05/25/montgomery-county-rapper-rises-to-fame/|publisher=The Churchill Observer|date=May 25, 2012|access-date=May 3, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130523064314/http://www.thechurchillobserver.com/top-stories/2012/05/25/montgomery-county-rapper-rises-to-fame/|archive-date=May 23, 2013|url-status=live}}

Career

=2005–2012: Early career and various mixtapes=

At the age of 13, Logic met Solomon Taylor, who would soon become his mentor.{{Cite web|url=https://thetalononline.org/3230/showcase/who-is-logic/|title=Who is Logic?|last=B|first=Hamzah|website=The Talon|access-date=2019-04-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191102172335/https://thetalononline.org/3230/showcase/who-is-logic/|archive-date=November 2, 2019|url-status=live}} Logic became interested in rap and hip hop after watching the movie Kill Bill: Volume 1, directed by Quentin Tarantino. The film's score was produced by RZA, a member of the hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan.{{cite web|last=Victorious|first=Dro|title=Logic Interview|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFfp_opgaCk|work=YouTube|access-date=June 11, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140512022713/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFfp_opgaCk|archive-date=May 12, 2014|url-status=live}} Following this, Logic began listening to the group, and soon expressed a deep affection for hip hop. Logic bought the Roots' album Do You Want More?!!!??! later that year, which prompted Taylor to bring Logic a large number of CDs containing instrumental beats, for him to write lyrics over.{{cite web|title=Logic Interview with Gowhere Hip Hop|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30aSOx9o0kY|publisher=Youtube|date=August 1, 2012|access-date=November 10, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131027111220/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30aSOx9o0kY|archive-date=October 27, 2013|url-status=live}} In 2009, Logic performed under the stage name "Psychological" with Logic describing the name as "one name that really stuck [with me]. I just loved this word because it was about the mind and I knew that's what I wanted my music to consist of; something that really challenges the mind".{{cite web|title=RealTalkDMV Presents: Logic – The Genesis|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s32LDdcVivk|work=YouTube| date=November 9, 2011 |access-date=June 11, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131017235557/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s32LDdcVivk|archive-date=October 17, 2013|url-status=live}} He released an unofficial mixtape titled Psychological – Logic: The Mixtape under his original stage name. The mixtape allowed Logic to serve as the opening act for artists like Pitbull, EPMD, Method Man, Redman, and Ludacris at various shows all over Maryland.{{citation needed|date=March 2020}} Soon after, he shortened the "Psychological" moniker to "Logic".

Following these introductory experiences, Logic released his first official mixtape, Young, Broke & Infamous, on December 15, 2010.{{cite web|url=https://www.datpiff.com/Logic-Young-Broke-Infamous-mixtape.178715.html|title=Young, Broke & Infamous Mixtape by Logic|work=DatPiff|access-date=February 22, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191101220347/https://www.datpiff.com/Logic-Young-Broke-Infamous-mixtape.178715.html|archive-date=November 1, 2019|url-status=live}} The mixtape was well received by critics and was the genesis for Logic to establish an early following. Chris Zarou, the president of Visionary Music Group, heard the mixtape and signed Logic to the independent label. Upon signing, Logic stated in an interview, "Visionary Music Group is like Roc-A-Fella. Damon Dash, that's like Chris Zarou of Visionary Music Group, I like to see myself as a Jay. In no way am I arrogant or cocky, I have to see it in order to do it. They did it independent and when they signed with a major, they did it the way that they wanted to do it".{{cite web|last=Larew|first=Tim|title=The Fresh Heir x Decriminals present… An Exclusive Interview with Logic|url=http://thefreshheir.com/2012/04/30/video-the-fresh-heir-x-decriminals-present-an-exclusive-interview-with-logic-2/|work=The Fresh Heir|date=April 30, 2012|access-date=August 31, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141221015514/http://thefreshheir.com/2012/04/30/video-the-fresh-heir-x-decriminals-present-an-exclusive-interview-with-logic-2/|archive-date=December 21, 2014|url-status=usurped|df=mdy-all}} The mixtape was confirmed to have been downloaded over 300,000 times on online mixtape sharing platform DatPiff.

But with me, I created all types of sounds from the get-go, so you can never say I'm changing." He commented on the musical aspects of the mixtape, stating, "There's stuff on there for the motherf***ers that don't pay attention to lyrics and just want to have fun, but every line is constructed with such depth that the real lyricists and nitpickers have something to listen to." After the release of Young Sinatra: Undeniable, Logic completed his first national headlining tour, the Visionary Music Group Tour.

Artistry

Logic cites Frank Sinatra as his main inspiration. Sinatra's influence can be seen in several aspects of Logic's persona, with Logic having the "RattPack" (a play on Sinatra's "Rat Pack" and an acronym for "Real All the Time"). The group initially consisted of Logic's manager Christian Zarou, executive producer 6ix, and rappers C Dot Castro and Big Lenbo. He also describes his female fans as "BobbySoxers", as well as referring to himself as "Young Sinatra".{{cite web|title=HandsDownMusic Exclusive: Interview with Logic|url=http://www.handsdownmusic.net/2011/11/29/handsdownmusic-exclusive-interview-with-logic/|work=Hands Down Music|access-date=June 11, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120720084610/http://www.handsdownmusic.net/2011/11/29/handsdownmusic-exclusive-interview-with-logic/|archive-date=July 20, 2012|df=mdy-all}} As a child, his mother made him watch old black and white movies, which formed his love for the singer. Logic cites Sinatra as instrumental to him being able to carry and articulate himself the way he does, with Logic describing him as an individual who "showcased peace, love, grace, positivity, honor, and valor".

Logic has said that various forms of entertainment across many platforms have influenced him, including music by A Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, Outkast, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Drake, Eminem, the Wu-Tang Clan, and films by Quentin Tarantino.{{cite web|title=The Break Presents: Logic|url=http://www.xxlmag.com/the-break/2012/02/the-break-presents-logic/|work=XXL Mag|date=February 20, 2012 |access-date=June 11, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120630081637/http://www.xxlmag.com/the-break/2012/02/the-break-presents-logic/|archive-date=June 30, 2012|url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://www.xxlmag.com/2013-freshmen/logic/|title=Logic (Rapper) – XXL Freshman 2013|website=Xxlmag.com|date=September 30, 2012|access-date=August 12, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130730002811/http://www.xxlmag.com/2013-freshmen/logic/|archive-date=July 30, 2013|url-status=live}} In an interview with XXL, Logic stated, "I love all subgenres within hip-hop and all genres of music, and I think that's what allows me to make the music that I do, because of my appreciation for the music."
