Early life and education
Holland was born and raised in northern Florida by a single mother of four boys. Though his family struggled to make ends meet, his mother always took an active role in furthering her son's education, his love for the environment, and his passion for music. Holland faced many adversities in his early life as he changed schools, moved from city to city, and found himself hanging around the wrong crowds.
In 2012-2013, Holland was arrested on two separate occasions, one being for drug possession and the other being a shoplifting charge. He made a shift after his second arrest and decided to channelize his talent and passion into a creative outfit. Cale, since his childhood, has been gifted with music, and he began going to studios after school to see what he could do. This led to a SoundCloud rap era which has been wiped off the internet, but the talent was apparent. Holland was then scouted by a modelling agency and made the decision to move to Los Angeles once he graduated from high school to focus on music and entertainment.
Career
At eighteen, Holland was discovered by a local scout and signed with an international modelling agency. Within his first year, he was featured in a variety of magazines and shot for major brands such as Gucci and PacSun. During this time, Cale decided to relocate to Los Angeles in order to focus on his original passion for music full-time. After successfully accomplishing his goal of being a model, he decided to focus on his roots and go back to pursue his original love, which is music.
