SJXY is a versatile rapper, singer and songwriter, fusing rap, afrobeat and afro drill; expressing his real life experiences growing up in two continents through his music. SJXY spent his early life in London, later relocating to Nigeria, which left a profound impact on his life view and passion for music from his homeland.
SJXY first started music exploring his musical talents at 16 years old; initially being attracted to the bubbling UK Rap Scene, with key features on platforms such as GRM Daily & Link Up TV.
His breakout song was titled ‘Beverly Hills’ in which he travelled across the pond to shoot the high spec visuals in Hollywood. From the visuals, lyrical content and his unique blended flow, he grabbed the attention of a cult following in the UK and US.
