Early life Michael Babatunde Adeyinka was born on May 10, 1989, and raised in South Brooklyn. His dream began after DJing his local church's Christmas parties as a teen. This eventually grew into paid gigs DJing church members' events such as birthday parties and weddings.

His African community in South Brooklyn began to take a fancy to his ability to play music with an afrobeats and dancehall-inspired atmosphere; the attention encouraged him to throw parties around the city.
