Early life and career

Adesanya Doyinsola like most successful musicians all over the world started music from the Church by learning how to play the drums and keyboard until he was deemed fit enough to play for the church choir. Years later, his musical prowess has been channeled into beat making and song writing despite early oppositions from parents.

He studied in OOU Olabisi Onabanjo University until he dropped out of school in 2009. He started developing interest in production of songs after he wrote his UTME and was awaiting Admission and he became really more interested in producing than school so he had to drop out.[3]
