Rapper-businessman Jayson Luzadas, AKA Boss Toyo, recently launched his new song, Rap Lord, and shared with LionhearTV his love for reading and his 148 IQ
Boss Toyo also narrated his educational background.
“‘Yun lang talaga kasi mahilig akong magbasa before, talagang mahilig akong magbasa ng books. Tsaka talagang malaking bagay rin na noong elementary ko, sa private school ako nag-elementary, so na-cope up ko.
“Kasi lagi akong kicked out eh, I was kicked out in thirteen schools. Lahat ng school sa Cavite napasukan ko, when I was kicked out.”
The famous rapper also claimed to have an IQ of 148, thanks to his love of reading.
“So nadala ko lang sa pagbabasa at tsaka siguro sa genes, kasi nga noong–hindi sa pagmamayabang, mataas talaga ang IQ Average ko, noong nag-exam kasi ako sa Baste, nakita– binigyan nila ako ng rating na IQ–my IQ was 148, so kahit hindi tayo nakapagtapos, magbasa lang ng magbasa, sariling sikap ba.”
He recounted facing financial struggles when he was younger.
“Actually hindi naman ako pinanganak na mahirap, dumating lang kami sa time na naloko ‘yung mga parents ko ng investment scam, so medyo matanda na ako noon, mga 18, 19, so nag-solo na rin ako noon, kasi burden na ako sa kanila eh.
“May kinakasama na rin ako before noon, so doon ko talaga naranasan ‘yung hirap. Kasi hindi man kayo maniwala, I was a grade six graduate. ‘Yun lang ‘yung tinapos ko.”
“Actually viral ‘yang post na ‘yan, na mayroon kaming tindahan na inutangan kasi wala kaming makain ng family ko, ‘yung kinakasama ko pregnant siya that time, wala kami makain. Naghintay ako ng matagal, kasi ang daming tao, nakakahiya di ba? So inantay ko na masolo ko, tapos ko ng masolo ko na siya, baka pwedeng makautang ng corned beef, so mga Php 20 lang ‘yun and na-reject ako.”
Inspiringly, he turned his life around and got into reselling watches. Thanks to his hard work, he soon became an entrepreneur and a rapper.
