His parents met in 1978, Davis’ mother had had a son from another relationship, Victor Davis. When Davis was born, his father was on-the-run from the police on drug-related charges (mainly due to selling crack cocaine and heroin and had fled to Detroit, Michigan. Due to Davis’ father not being there, he wasn’t able to sign the birth certificate, Radric took his mother’s last name.
Gucci was good in school and considered himself athletic though he didn’t partake in any extracurricular activities involving sports. Davis began drug dealing, mainly selling cannabis, with his older brother. Davis eventually started selling cannabis on his own and then ended up using his Christmas money to start acquiring crack cocaine while in the eighth grade, starting Davis’ career as a drug dealer.

Religion Information
Gucci is a strong believer in God and is a Christian. He has tweeted things like this before, “God thank you for my punishment it made me wise.”
Besides the large gold Jesus piece Mane likes to wear around, the scant information we have about his Christian beliefs are embedded in his songs and a poem called “Round II” that he wrote in prison. In it, he talks about how prayer kept him sane, and that “besides God, no one’s perfect.”
Political Views
He commented on Trump’s animated facial expressions on Twitter, “I think Donald Trump just did all of the emoji faces in 9 seconds.” It’s likely that he is anti-Trump. It’s unclear if he holds views that lean more towards Republican or Democrat.
But against all run of play, he failed to even make a single comment about Obama too, given he is a black man himself.
Hobbies
Poetry and songwriting are activities Gucci enjoys as well as working out. He loves doing sober things now that he has been released from prison.
Dating Profile
Gucci dated longtime girlfriend, Keyshia Ka’oir for 12 years before marrying her recently.
