Theodore and Carrie Major gave birth to Thomas Major, on April 15, 1981 in Beaufort, South Carolina at Beaufort Memorial Center. He attended Beaufort High School of Beaufort, South Carolina but received his GED and ASE Certification from Earl C Clements located in Morganfield, Kentucky. His love for music was present at a very early age. He recalls sitting on the floor at home listening to Marvin Sease, Marvin Gaye, and Sam Cook thinking to himself," I’m going to be a Legendary too". Being raised in a family of 8 Thomas quickly learned how to cope with life struggles and obstacles. At the age of 14 Thomas grouped himself with a crowd that taught him the game and the survival of street life. He was such a promiscuous teenager that he wanted his hands in everything that would make money fast. Waiting around for a hand out just wasn’t an option. When the movie ‘New Jack City’ premiered Thomas adopted the name Young Nino, as his own. It was the perfect stage name for his personality and everything he stood for. His greatest influence was his grandfather Willie Capers, who told him “WHATEVER YOU DO,DO IT WELL”.
