While speaking to At Home With the podcast, Sean talked about his father, who called his old man a crazy dude. Talking about Gimme The Light, the song that was super popular among weed lovers back then, he said:

The song means a lot to me … it lasted so long and it big up all the weed dudes. My father was locked up several times for weed, he crashed a ganja plane in the Everglades, he was a crazy dude. Yeah for all of those things he went through, when this song broke, he was mad proud of his boy.

Speaking to The Gleaner, Sean said that his mom didn't want him to pursue his career in music because of the fear of critics. She was worried that people might not like her son's work. Regarding this, he said:

On my mom side, yes because she is an artist. She paints and so she knows exactly what it feels like to pour your emotion into something and then somebody tells you that it's not good enough, or the public might tell you they don't like it.
