He was born to his then young parents Terri R. Seymour and Michael Brown Seymour. His loving grandmother Shirley A. Palmer stepped in to help her young raise her first born grandson in Beacon Hills in Frayser. His late grandmother Peggy Brown played a very important part in his upbringing.

Michael was baptized and confessed his life to Christ at Mt. Olive Cathedral C.M.E. His life’s venture began at Lemoyne Garden Day Care. He attended Cummings Elementary, Caldwell, and Whitney and Westside Elementary. He later attended Raleigh Egypt Middle School, and Raleigh Egypt High School. He loved his schools, especially Raleigh Egypt High School. Michael had many interests in life. He loved to DJ and Rap. When he was on the Mic you were guaranteed to have the best time ever. He loved making people laugh because he was always joking, and playing around. (Lol) Your side wall felt like it was breaking. Mike also like to dance and he was just the life of the party. One thing is for sure, he loved his mom. He made it known by getting a tattoo on his left arm that read “Momma’s Boy!!!” Michael was well loved and he will be greatly missed.
