He took a break from the music business and went to college. After winning a lawsuit for wrongful arrest, he started using his time working on his music & writing. The outspoken entertainer started his own entertainment company. Playing by a different set of rules- his own. 

In 2019 Chosen started a non-profit organization called A.C.C.E.P.T (Advanced Cooperative Communication Empowerment for People of all Types) to unite each other and bring communities that are different together to bring unity into each community.

He encourages gay men to shine brighter with their talents. His opinion and brutal honesty often stir up some heated discussions. This is why Chosen is the firecracker Starboy.
