Curtis told XXL he discovered who his famous father was when he was 12 and a young kid who was already interested in pursuing music. A few years later, he started the process of getting in touch with Dre, which was a difficult task to even start, but after connecting with lawyers and getting a DNA test, he met his father when he was 20. Despite the missed years, all seems well between the two. "It's been good. We're both working ... I always want to paint him in the best light that I can," he said. Curtis explained he doesn't get money from his dad, adding, "I don't want that from him because I have my own story and I want my own legacy. Or at least to continue what he started."

The young rapper has gone by Hood Surgeon in the past but is now sticking with Curtis Young, taking Dre's last name. TMZ reported in 2021 that he would star in a film called "Charge It to the Game" and is composing its original music. The ensemble is set to include Snoop Dogg's son Julian Broadus and Swizz Beat's son Nasir Dean.
