Rapper King Birthday Special: Singer-rapper King has created a mark in the music industry with his incredible talent and hard work. While everyone talks about his achievement today, not many know that the artiste started focusing on his career since he was in school. King, who celebrates his 27th birthday on October 10, began his artistic journey when he was only a school student.

It was at the age of 13 that King penned his very first song. This early composition marked the beginning of his love affair with music. He performed it in front of his classmates, and to his delight, everyone loved the track. This moment not only boosted his confidence but also ignited his passion for songwriting and performing.

King has preserved the memories of his early songwriting endeavors and still holds onto the book in which he recorded his school compositions. This treasured book, he feels, keeps him connected to his roots and reminds him of the formative years of his journey. What’s interesting to note is the first page of the book, which has the word “Rockstar” inscribed on it – who knew that King actually manifested his future. The artiste is now embracing the reality, which is no less than a dream come true for him.

What has kept him grounded over the years, despite all the fame and love coming his way is the people he is surrounded with. “Even if my songs are trending on number 1, I am humble enough to take it all in and then go back to the studio to create better music. I don’t let success get to my head. And that’s also because the kind of people I keep with me. My friends celebrate my success but they also keep me grounded. I couldn’t have been what I am without them. I am like an excited child who goes to his people, tell them about his dream and together we make it work,,” he told Hindustan Times in an interview.
