Kane Brown has been pretty open about his rough childhood.<\/p>\n
He was raised by a single mom and they were so poor they had to live in a car for a while.<\/p>\n
But Kane recently shared another shocking detail on “CBS This Morning”.<\/p>\n
He was telling Gayle King how music helped him escape from problems at home when he was a kid.<\/p>\n
“I had a crazy childhood. I had to grow up a lot faster than a normal person.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
She asked why, and he shared this horrific story. ”<\/p>\n
Moving around a lot. No father figure, child abuse. [I was] beat a lot. One of my stepdads punished me by shaving my head bald and put aftershave on me and made me physically eat a half bar of soap. Not just bite, physically eat it and swallow it. All kinds of crazy things.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Kane vowed to create a different life for his wife Kaitlyn, and their two daughters, Kodi and Kingsley.<\/p>\n
“I just always knew that I was going to try and be there for [my family]. And I always wanted to give them the life that I never had.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
