Maxx Ca$h started rapping when he was in third grade (2009) under the name Sparky. He just freestyled with his friends and wrote only a few songs up until he was in sixth grade. He met another kid who was madly into rap, this other kid was Andrew D, co-founder of V Slash Records along with Maxx Ca$h. At the time Maxx Ca$h's freestyling skills were getting much better as his vocabulary expanded. He would often freestyle with a kid who would later be in V Slash Records with him, this kid was CP. When Maxx Ca$h and Andrew D pitched the idea of a rap group it was a great idea to both of them instantly. After a while however V Slash would evolve from a rap group to a record label
