    In 2013, when the Maryland native was rising to fame, he spoke with the Baltimore Sun about his ridiculous work ethic.

    According to Logic, in order to achieve everything he wanted out of music, he often stayed away from teenage social life.

    "I don't do anything but just work hard," he said in that interview. "I sacrificed a lot of things growing up. To this day, I've never been to a house party. All I've done since I was young, was hone my craft."

    Logic keeps his circle very, very small.

    Fame and money attract all kinds of people who suddenly want to be down. Any entertainer could probably tell you that. But Logic said he doesn't deal with a lot of new folks and doesn't do much when he's at home.

    "Sometimes I watch movies," he told Connecticut's Hot 93.7. "I don't party. I don't go out. It's just me and my homies in our circle. I stay away from everyone and everything, so I can just continue to remain who I am."

    He also said something similar during a separate interview that you can see in the video attached.

    Around the time there were record labels clamoring for Young Frank Sinatra, he revealed that a meeting with No I.D. — the Executive Vice President of A&R — solidified things for him. In addition, Logic said the producer is the very reason he moved from Maryland to Los Angeles.

    Plus, the talented wordsmith said No I.D. wanted to sign an artist who was ultra creative but could still be commercially successful and once he said that, signing to Def Jam was a no-brainer for the rapper.

    "My father has called me and been like, 'I don't really appreciate you talking about me smoking crack all the time,'" said Logic in a past interview.
