He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana as Emmitt Perry, Jr., named after his father, a construction worker. In addition to young Emmit, his family consisted of three siblings, his mother Willie Maxine Perry, and his violently abusive father. His childhood was far from ideal. Perry once said of Emmitt Sr., "his only answer to everything was to beat it out of you." As a child, Perry once even went so far as to attempt suicide in an effort to escape his father's beatings. In contrast to his father, his mother took him to church each week where he sensed a certain refuge and contentment.[15] At age 16, he had his first name legally changed from Emmitt to Tyler in an effort to distance himself from his father.[16] After seeing the film Precious, he was moved to relate accounts of being molested by a friend's mother and by another friend's father at age 10, and finding out that his own father was molesting a friend.[17]
