Bakar is a British musician from Camden in London. 　　Bakar grew up in Camden in North London, and attended a state school before being sent to a boarding school in Surrey by his mum “for just being a cunt.”He said of this experience that "going outside of London and hearing other tastes and how that can relate to me, it definitely did something to me.”He started creating music in 2015 by cutting up samples of Bombay Bicycle Club and King Krule songs and uploading them to an anonymous Soundcloud account.
