Background

Originally from Toronto, Ontario,[3] he is of Trinidadian and Jamaican descent.[3] After discovering grime and dubstep music through the Internet, he began making his own grime tracks in 2010, and started to attract positive attention in the United Kingdom.[6] Visiting London in 2011, he began working with established grime stars such as Wiley, JME and Skepta,[7] and released his debut EP The Practice Mission.[6]

He released the mixtape Malmaison in 2013,[8] and followed up with the album Stigmata in 2014.[2]

Stigmata includes guest appearances by Wiley, JME, Skepta, Merky Ace, Saukrates, Andreena and k-os.[2] The album was a shortlisted Juno Award nominee for Rap Recording of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2015.[9]
