Luh Tyler says he began smoking weed at the age of just 13. He reflected on the first time he smoked as well as a particularly memorable experience with marijuana during an appearance on The Progress Report podcast.
“I ain’t gon’ lie I was probably about like 13,” he said. As for a memory that sticks out to him regarding smoking, he opted for more recent incidents. “Phone on 1%,” he recalled. “They just handed me the charger. I done hit the blunt, let my phone die the whole time. Let my phone die with my charger in my hand, and I be doing high shit all time. I be having lighters in my hand. Like, ‘Bro, where the lighter at?’ Lighter be right in my hand. It be a lot of high shit, I ain’t gone lie.”

Tyler broke into mainstream success with the release of his song, “Law & Order." He went on to release his debut project, My Vision, back in March. On the project, Tyler was able to land a collaboration with Lil Uzi Vert on the song, “Ransom." He discussed how that effort came about during a recent interview with Complex.
He recalled to the outlet: "I think that was my first time out here [in New York]. When he hit me up he just hit my DMs, and he asked where I was at. And I was like, 'Oh man.' Then he was like, 'Pull up to the studio.' And I just pulled up on him. Then we was in that bih all night. We did another song too. But he got that one, and then we did the 'Ransom.' I had went to sleep, because he was in that bitch so long, he was just doing shit. He comes in there, does a song, comes out, be like, 'Nah, that ain't good enough.' Delete the whole song."
