Over the years, too many music genres have evolved, and the music industry as a whole has gained immense growth and success, for which many young musicians, rappers, songwriters, composers need to be thanked. To create one’s unique standing in the industry, which is known for consistently giving birth to extraordinary talents, one needs to fight tooth and nail.

Serving as one of the classic examples of such youngsters is SAYF, contributing heavily to making the music scene in Dubai more lit and successful.

“As a kid, poetry was something that attracted me the most as I felt a close inclination towards it. I felt I was made for the music world, especially after hearing Eminem and 2PAC on my uncle’s Walkman player, which I had stolen. I knew what I wanted to do and realized my true purpose in life,” says the rising musician from Dubai. Adding further, he said, “Without thinking what the music industry had in store for me, I began writing poetry, which evolved into writing rap, and here I am today, a hustler, and a musician, who believed in his talents and put every possible effort to attain the success he desired.”
