Early life

Holmes was born in Memphis, but moved to Atlanta, where he spent the majority of his childhood. He learned to play piano and keyboards during church. After high school, Holmes briefly attended Full Sail University in Florida, although he never graduated.\n

Career

Holmes began rapping at the age of sixteen with the group Dem Savages. The group used to download beats on SoundClick for 99 cents, although most of the beats cost $100 for exclusive rights. As a way to save money, London drew upon his experience playing piano arrangements in church and began making beats for rappers. With the help of online software he was able to refine his craft. He gained local acclaim when he began producing beats for the Rich Kidz. Early on in his career, Holmes gave away his beats for free as a means to build connections and garner more publicity. The first song he produced that received radio play was \"Pieon\" by Rich Kidz. The success of the song motivated Holmes to continue his work. In 2011, he recorded his first of many collaborations with Young Thug, with the song \"Curtains\". By proximity of Young Thug, a member of Cash Money Records's spin off project Rich Gang, Holmes was led to sign with the label as an in-house producer by 2014. In April of that year, he was credited on labelmate Tyga's single \"Hookah\", which marked Holmes' first production to enter the Billboard Hot 100.\n

In August of that year, rapper and label boss Bryan \"Birdman\" Williams referred to Holmes as \"the best producer in the business, as we speak today\". Holmes' frequent collaborator Young Thug has stated that [Holmes] is his favorite producer to work with, and will go down as \"the greatest producer ever\". Complex included him on their 2013 list of \"25 New Producers To Watch For\". That same month, three singles produced by London on da Track charted on the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time—Rich Gang's \"Lifestyle\" at number 16, T.I.'s \"About the Money\" at 42, and Tyga's aforementioned \"Hookah\" at 85. \n

In 2018, he appeared in Black Ink Crew: Chicago. That same year, he was named to Spotify's Secret Genius Ambassador's list. In 2019, he appeared in Netflix's Rhythm + Flow, as a production advisor in the series' home stretch.\n

In March 2020, Holmes produced and co-wrote Ariana Grande's single \"Positions\", which debuted atop the Billboard Hot 100, as well as the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, becoming his most commercially successful production.\n

Personal life

Holmes has 4 children; a daughter with singer Summer Walker born in 2021, as well as another daughter and 2 sons from previous relationships.\n
