Marwan Moussa was born and grew up in Cairo. He started as a producer in 2016 before going behind the microphone in 2019 with "El Bosla Da3et". His style — a trap fed with chaâbi sounds and Egyptian Arabic — was established with the album Florida (2021), then Import//Export (2023).

In 2022, he made a trip to the All Africa Music Awards (AFRIMA): the best African rapper, revelation and best African hip-hop artist. In 2023, he was the third most listened to Arab hip-hop artist in the MENA region on Spotify, and his videos accumulated over 180 million views.

In December 2024, he signed the soundtrack of the film El Harifa 2. On May 5, 2025, he appeared The Man Who Lost His Heart, a five-part concept album, and in the same month, he became the first artist to perform in Arabic on From The Block with "Fahman Donya".
