MTV Chronicles Casey Veggies' Graduation

On the day of the 17 year old Inglewood rapper's high school graduation, MTV documented Casey Veggies' journey, sitting down with him as well as his family, friends, and English teacher. Those involved discussed how well Young Veggies has balanced his schoolwork with his music career, which can be evidenced by his graduating on the honor roll with a 3.5 GPA.



"Veggies realized that he could have quit school to pursue his dreams, but he never felt the need to. He knew he could handle it, so why not get school done? As for college, though his mother says he was accepted to four schools, he’s postponing those plans while he sees where his rap career goes.
'At the end of the day, I’m just dreaming right now,' Casey said. 'I’m going to stay in my dream and don’t plan on waking up. If I do, maybe I’ll grab a college degree, but right now, I’m in my own world.'"
