He grew up on a council estate in Northampton by a single mother and since school pursued music.
The Northampton artist released his debut EP I Wish I Knew to much acclaim with music outlets such as Pitchfork and Complex naming him as one to watch in 2018.

He has stated, “My goal is to change the world in some way shape or form”
