Biography
Simon was born and raised in Downtown Manhattan.[7] He is the son of the late Sidney Simon, a well-known sculptor in New York City, and Renee Adriance, a social worker.[8] He has one brother and five half siblings.[8] At a young age, he loved hip hop in both the lyrical and musical aspects.[7] In his early teens, Simon and his friends formed a group called the Overground, where he started making music.[7] As an aspiring rapper, he enrolled in Boston University and encountered Aesop Rock, another BU student.[9] At this point, Simon quit rapping and focused on producing music.[9] According to him, his stage name comes from the shape of his head: "While it's not square, it's pretty close."[10]
