Both siblings harbored a deep passion for music from their early years, displaying an affinity for a diverse range of genres, including Hip Hop, R&B, Reggae, Country, and more. They consistently emphasized their openness to exploring various musical styles without imposing limitations on themselves.
Their musical journey commenced with playful experimentation in creating beats and writing songs. Their father, upon discovering their latent talent, was astonished by the extent of their abilities. In a supportive move, he even took them to recording studios to bring their written songs to life.
Their father stood by their side day and night, providing unwavering support as they collaborated with music producers in the studio.
