Samuel Agyei (born May 30, 2002), stage name Stepz, is a UK-based content creator and rapper from Croydon. He is best known for his hit single "Rock," released on October 11 2024. His comedic videos have amassed millions of views on TikTok and other social media platforms, and several other of his musical releases have gained viral recognition.
Agyei's first song "Eureka" was released on December 9, 2021 and gained traction on TikTok. While initially hesitant to release music, the positive reception of his debut single encouraged him to continue to pursue more music projects while continuing to create comedic content for social media.[1]
Before starting his social media career, Agyei worked various odd jobs and was briefly involved with an anti-knife-crime organization, spreading awareness about the rising knife-crime rates in London. He attended the University of Roehampton in London but began skipping lectures and classes to focus on creating social media videos and writing raps.[1] Eventually, as his audience skyrocketed, it provided him with a platform to share his work that ultimately lead to a deal with Fly Straight Management, encouraging him to dedicate further effort into his career and music projects.
A practicing Christian, Agyei has said in interviews that he believes that rap does not have to be about street politics in order for the songs to reach audiences. He regularly mentions his faith in his lyrics and hopes to "influence people to go to heaven and do good in the world."[2]
