Who was rapper Big Scarr?
Born Alexander Woods in Memphis, TN on April 7 2000, Scarr was one of eight siblings and grew up living with his grandma until she died when he was just 13.
The name Big Scarr reportedly came from injuries he suffered when he was in a car crash aged 16.
Scarr was thrown through the windshield of a friend’s car during the smash and sustained several scars.
He suffered further injuries when he was shot in the hip in 2020, with doctors forced to remove his appendix and realign his right leg after the bullet travelled into his spine.
