Taylor Blaxck started writing rap songs when he was doing grade 8 in Tiyelelani secondary school, he also stated that at first when he was starting to write songs, he never thought he was able to run words, run stories and write motivation through his head. He became honest to a statement he made about experience in writing songs that it was not easy thing to do at first but as he kept writing songs over and over, that's when he started gaining experience and that he was able to write and match "INTRO-HOOK - VERSE - OUTRO" all in an hour. Few months later after being able to write rap songs, he then allowed himself to go through other musical genre he finds interesting to see if he can fit in.
