Humble Beginnings
In 2006, after completing his GCSE O-Levels, he left school and began working as a butcher at a Keels Super Market branch. His goal was to earn money to kick start his music career and support his single mother. His father had passed away when he was just 8, leaving his mother as the sole provider. Determined not to burden her any longer, he sought to both contribute financially and pursue his dreams.
During this time, he began learning about music and record labels, and established Urban Records on social media. This became the first record label to connect artists worldwide, collaborating on songs and projects.
