Sihle Sithole was born on 24 November 1999 in Sydenham Heights, Durban, South Africa.[2][3] His musical interest started at the age of 6 when he recorded music with his friends.[2] Sithole enrolled at the University of KwaZulu-Natal with a degree in Psychology, but failed to graduate due to the lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] In an interview with Akho Mabandla, he commented that he felt there was a disconnect between South African artists and their fans, saying "It's almost like when an artist blows up or gets a little bit of fame, that goes straight to their head. But what they forget is that the fans will always be the thing that stands between you and greatness. As much as they love the music, we need them to keep listening if we want to stick around, and that's what I'm all about."[1][4] In March 2020, Sithole visited Johannesburg as the country underwent a 21-day lockdown
