Born in London in 1989, but with his roots firmly planted in Sierra Leone, he had to stay in Belgium with his mother and little brother to escape the political turbulences in his home country. But Darrell Cole always knew he had a passion for music. Raised by a young single mother, music was always played at home. He has even learned the art of songwriting through writing down the lyrics of songs for his mother. 　　Music has been the only constant factor in his life. Learning everything he could from the best in his surroundings, he has thereby developed his own style and flow that helped him made his mark in Belgian hip hop. He formed a musical collective called Weardo with his neighbourhood friends. He landed in TMF’s (former local music channel in Belgium) top 5 with his music video ‘5 Seconds’. In 2011, he made his first mixtape “On My Way”. And in 2013 he made his first in-house album “Uncut Diamond”. One of the tracks on the album called “Growing Pains” got played regularly on MTV. But despite his efforts and being in the charts of TMF and MTV, he never got picked up by the Belgian media. This resulted in frustrations and made him delete his videos from the internet, including ‘Growing Pains’.
