Built From Nothing is the sound of resistance - the voice that rises when the world expects silence.

It was born from hunger, frustration, and the fire that comes from having to earn every inch of ground you stand on. This isn’t just a track - it’s an autobiography in rhythm.

Every bar carries the weight of long nights, every drop echoes the grind that forged the man. It’s trap and Amapiano colliding - hard edges with African heartbeat, anger with elevation.

The song is about those who were counted out, dismissed, and underestimated - the ones who built empires from dust and dreams.

Built From Nothing is proof that greatness doesn’t come from comfort. It comes from pain, from patience, and from the will to rise again and again - until the world has no choice but to listen.

Built from Nothing

I am a Cape Town based artist creating where faith and fury meet, where heartbreak finds defiance.

My sound blends Amapiano, Afro house, and cinematic electronic energy to tell stories of loss, resistance, and renewal.

Each song is my reaction to a world on fire, a mix of prayer, protest, and raw emotion.

From Marches Across the World to Faith Falls and Nothing Left to Break, I turn exhaustion into defiance and rage into rhythm.

Every beat carries memory, every lyric challenges silence.

Through both sound and photography, I try to document humanity in its most fragile form - powerful, broken, and still reaching for light.

My art is not entertainment; it is evidence.
It is rhythm as remembrance and the sound of a man who still feels deeply, even when faith falls.
