The performer was born in Germany, moved to Nigeria at the age of 6 and only later ended up in South London where he grew up.
Unlike most of his peers, he was not involved in the street in any way and from his teenage years worked part-time as a sound engineer at a local studio. He then went to music school and learnt to play the piano.
Strandz debuted a few singles in 2020, but viral success came after the track ‘Us Against the World’ went viral on TikTok. This year, the artist released his first EP, No Time.
In July 2024, it was revealed that Strandz would be performing at Wireless Festival 2024.
