Early life
Rashidi Alema Anzor was born on 4 April 2001 in Kisangani, Democratic Republic of Congo.[11][12] He is the eldest of four children, with three younger sisters. During his childhood, his family moved to Goma,[13][14] where he spent part of his early years.[15] After the divorce of his parents, he relocated with his mother and sisters to Lubumbashi, where he spent much of his adolescence.[16][17][18]
Career
In early 2025, Alem postponed the release of his debut album following a major data loss and a desire to refocus his creative direction. The announcement was covered by several international outlets, including BroadwayWorld, News Ghana, GhanaMusic, and NationalWorld.[19][20][21][22]
Asaase Radio described Alem’s career as a cross-cultural trajectory between Goma and Casablanca, suggesting it challenges conventional boundaries of African Afrobeats.[23][24] According to the Daily Herald, his work has attracted attention from musical groups in the United States.[25]
