As he grew up and when he was around 12 years old, he began to love music more, but became shy to sing in front of people or even in front of his family. He says "I really loved singing so I wanted to sing somewhere with a group of people or friends so that I could sing as well as overcome my shyness" I had a few friends who had a band and they wanted me to come practice with them & I used to be with them all the time singing different songs, but due to my school work been neglected, my dad grounded me from going to meet them".
