Berner career
Berner attended Galileo Academy of Science and Technology before dropping out, and his family moved to Arizona when he was 13.
During high school, he began battle rapping and in 2006 he released his first mixtape, Dirty Sneakers…Plenty Ways to Get It.
Berner made a slow rise from the mixtape underground in the 2000s, later signing with Wiz Khalifa’s Taylor Gang Records in 2012 for the release of his fourth set, Urban Farmer.
In addition to his solo work, he is also a prolific collaborator, issuing over a dozen collaborations with the likes of the Jacka, B-Real, Cam’ron, Styles P, Young Dolph and Mozzy.
Berner is also a vocal proponent of marijuana and co-founded Cookies, a shop selling weed and weed-associated clothing and lifestyle accessory items that grew into a franchise.
His secret sauce is his synergy.
The clothing drives cannabis sales, the cannabis drives clothing sales, and he features both in his songs.
Thanks to his Cookies cannabis empire, Berner now ranks among hip-hop’s wealthiest acts.
His success is unique because he wasn’t a household name from his music, but he still used his notoriety to build Cookies.
He also did it in a polarizing industry with tons of regulatory challenges.
Berner’s business success supersedes his music fame.
He is also an entrepreneur and has other business pursuits including fashion lines and even his own genetically engineered original strains of medical marijuana.
