Cell-Fis has been making beats and music since age 10. As a music prodigy who started by playing guitar and then the sax, Cell-Fis won numerous awards in recitals and competitions thus establishing him as a music force to be reckoned with. Later he abandoned the guitar and then the sax and made the keyboard his companion.

After acquiring his first keyboard at age 11, he started composing beats and rapping to them. That was just the beginning of a star in the making whose aptitude in music was about to be unleashed.

Word got around quick that there was a new music wizard in town and Cell-Fis would find himself being surrounded by musicians of all ages each with the intention of learning a few tricks with this music genius.

As he got to know more people in music, his name became a mantra to all up and coming stars as well as some pros. It was in 1999 that he formed his first group called TKO.
