Biography
Christian Wiggins, professionally known as Young C, is a hip-hop artist from California with foundations in original Hip-Hop and Gospel. Growing up in Riverside, California, Young C has always had a love for rhythmic poetry over beats, but it was not until 2007 that he actually began to record. Hundreds of songs and plenty of small mixes were made over a two-year period by Young C and a local team producer.
In mid-2009, an unorganized, mixed CD fell into the hands of Jus-tus’, a production team for Interscope Records, and they fell in love with the raw talent of Young C. After plenty of meetings and studio sessions Young C signed to an independent label, Joining Universal Sounds Together (J.U.S.T.) Productions, in late 2009.
