Alfa Sekitoleko was born in the United Kingdom and grew up in Newham, London.[3] He went to Langdon Academy and Newham Sixth Form College.[1] He originally wanted to become a professional footballer, but his mother wanted him to complete two years at college first. Alfa took three A-levels plus a BTEC in music composition.[1] He began creating music at the age of 15.[1] As a teenage hip-hop producer, his interest in sampling led him to discovering jazz and eventually teaching himself how to play piano, after watching his music tutor perform John Legend’s "Ordinary People".[5][6][1]
