Shawn Cee: Personal Life, Childhood

Shawn Cee was born on October 25, 1995, making him a millennial. He was born in Detroit, Michigan, the United States, to an African-American father and Persian mother. Because of his inconspicuous lifestyle, there is no further information regarding his parents.

Moreover, Shawn supposedly has five siblings. He grew up with his four sisters and one brother. Unsurprisingly, Shawn was born to a music-loving family and was exposed to great music at a very young age. That might have been the reason for Shawn to develop such an incredible taste for music and know a lot about beats, melodies, and the lyrical analogy of music.

Sources have found that Shawn’s initial music inspirations were his father and mother.

Shawn’s father had introduced him to classical music from exemplary musicians like Wu-Tang Clan, Tupac, Nas, Jay-Z, DM X, The Beatles, The Notorious B.I.G., etc. Likewise, his mother introduced him to other great singers like Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, Fugees, the Temptations, Marvin Gaye, etc.

Furthermore, Shawn seems to have completed his elementary and high school education. There is no information about his college education or whether he wishes to join a college soon.

Besides, Shawn has also admitted to loving animes and playing videogames. Similarly, in his few videos, he has mentioned his love for classic animes like Dragon Ball Z, Naruto, Pokemon, My Hero Academia, One Piece, etc. Shawn is also interested in Anime soundtracks.

Shawn Cee: Lung Surgery

At the age of 19, before graduating from high school, Shawn Cee had to go through lung surgery. The surgery is probably the most unfortunate thing that has happened in the life of this young youtube personality.

In one of his ‘question-answer’ videos on youtube, he briefly described what had happened to him, particularly the events. In the video, he mentioned that the surgery occurred in May of 2014.

He described, “I had just come back home from running, and it felt like somebody shot me in the chest with a flaming arrow laced with poison, and I immediately went pale. I couldn’t breathe, almost fell out. Still, I slept like that. But after waking up(the next morning), my back was stinging, (I) got up, couldn’t breathe.”

After such excruciating physical pain, Shawn went to the hospital to get checked. Firstly, he had to go through a procedure, and then two days later, he was asked to perform a surgery. He had to stay in the hospital for almost ten days.

He revealed that what had happened to him was medically termed as ‘tension pneumothorax,’ also known as collapsed lungs. Since it affected only one side of his body, he could feel the tension in his shoulders as well. He expressed that it almost felt like a heart attack.

Recovery Process

Because time passes very slow in the hospital, Shawn, too, was utterly bored. In this period, he said that he became accustomed to several new music styles. He found massive styles of hip-hop and got more into various obscure things on the internet.

During his recovery time, he was in his senior year of high school but couldn’t attend school. So he completed his school via online classes.
