During the beginning of his musical career, he served during operations such as Continue Hope in Somalia (as depicted in the film Black Hawk Down), the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina (now Bosnia and Herzegovina) and in additional operations of conflict involving the United States during the late 1990s. God was grooming B.A. Warrior for war at an early age to be an influencer in this spiritual war.
