Rapper Bobby Sessions sets his sights on a second Grammy win with debut album 'Manifest'

Bobby Sessions envisioned his future as a rapper, and his manifestation is coming to fruition.

In 2014, Sessions left a job with $50 in his bank account, putting himself in a place that made finding success as a rapper mandatory, he tells USA TODAY. He wrote "Def Jam," his dream record label, on a dry erase board and his vision for the future began to unfold.

Sessions' debut album "Manifest," a personal and powerful 12-track lineup recorded with High Standardz and Def Jam Recordings, dropped Friday.

"It feels good to see a lot of the things I've visualized and dreamed about throughout my life come to pass," says Sessions, who calls himself "Young Legend from Dallas."
