In 2005, he went to Liraoheleng LEC Primary School, Mapetla High School for secondary level in 2011 and went to St. Joseph’s High School in 2015. “I fell in love with music back in 2012. Inspired by Komanda Obbs-led crew, Lithuamajoe; I loved the fact that they made the Sesotho language sound so cool. Back in those days, almost everyone wrote their music in English and that’s when I formed my own group by the name of Maapara Kobo in 2013”, Omali stated.
