What you need to know about Sun-El Musician

With several hits to his name and collaborations with esteemed artists like Samthing Soweto and Ami Faku, Sun El Musician has solidified his reputation as a talented artist. However, the person behind the name remains somewhat enigmatic.

He was born on March 28, 1989, in the Rosetta region of KwaZulu-Natal Midlands. Raised by a domestic worker on the farms of Rosetta, he grew up alongside his four siblings after his parents separated during his childhood. Tragically, both parents passed away due to health issues in 2017, just a month apart.

This loss came in the same year he also lost his grandmother. In 2007, he enrolled in a bridging course at the University of KwaZulu-Natal, which was intended to transition him into a science course. However, he struggled with the studies, lost interest, failed his first year, and ultimately dropped out.
