They are from Tema, and draw inspiration from Asa, Koffee, Obongjayar, and Abdullah Ibrahim.
They gained recognition with their debut EP "Lumumba St" (2021). In 2023, they were the only Ghanaian selected for Spotify's Radar program, and later released "Okay Baby, Let's Do This", earning five nominations at the 2024 3Music Awards. Their third EP, "In Pursuit of Happiness" (2024), followed by a live rendition in 2025, marks their evolution as both artist and advocate.
