Born in the Bedford Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York City. Born to Irene Mackie, Papoose made his first attempts at rapping at the age of eleven. He was given his name by his grandmother because of his childhood resemblance to a Native American child. Inspired by Rakim, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane, he made his first recorded appearance in 1998 on Kool G Rap's Roots of Evil album. The following year, he released his first single, "Thug Connection"/"Alphabetical Slaughter".
After an early record deal failed, he decided to produce and sell his own mixtapes one of which he presented to DJ Kay Slay outside the offices of New York's Hot 97 after the latter's radio show there.This led to Kay Slay inviting Papoose onto the air, and, impressed by his rendition of "Alphabetical Slaughter", signing him to his Streetsweepers Entertainment label. He continued to release mixtapes at a prolific rate – over a dozen between 2004 and 2006 – and won the Justo Mixtape Award for Best Underground Artist in 2005. As of 2008, he had put out his twentieth, Build or Destroy.
