REAM, a.k.a Christian Munguia, was born in Honduras and raised there for six years. Never knowing his biological father, and having his mother leave to America for a better way of life, REAM was left alone with his grandmother as his guardian.
In 1985 he made his American debut in New York where he quickly picked up the English language and met his new Puerto Rican stepfather. As a child REAM was told about a man named Jesus who always hears our prayers and who's always there for us. Unfortunately the desires of the world led him astray from God's purpose.

His ambitions to pursue the rap life style took him through many of life's hard lessons. REAM would perform in bars, clubs, and anywhere that he could be heard, but to no avail. He found himself selling drugs just to maintain the party life style that he was living. The world was his oyster until all collapsed on him all at once.
