Biography

 Adelabu Alexander Adewunmi was born on 27 September 1999, known on stage as Magixx, and was born and raised in Ogba town Lagos state where he lives with his parents, but hails from Ekiti State in the south-western parts of Nigeria.

Early Life

Magixx was birthed to the family of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander. His parents instilled in him a profound reverence for his elders and his culture, which he gained from being raised in a Christian household with Yoruba roots.

He was brought up in the mainland region of Lagos, and the town of Ogba was his home for the majority of his formative years.

When he was a young boy, he was attracted to music and would frequently spend hours listening to songs from a variety of genres, including pop, hip-hop, reggae, and highlife music.

Magixx made the decision to experiment with music after being inspired by musicians such as Fela Kuti, 2baba, D’banj, and Shina Peters. He began writing music lyrics in the privacy of his own bedroom as a result of this decision.

After some time had passed, he transitioned from merely writing songs to performing them in front of an audience at local school competitions and community carnivals.

As a result of the encouraging feedback he was getting from his audience at the time, he became determined to pursue music as his full-time occupation.
