SEMAT is carving out a unique space for himself with his distinctive sound, which he calls "Afro Soft." This emerging artist, hailing from the town of Iperu-Remo in Ogun State, Nigeria, has not only made waves with his music but also with his remarkable background, one shaped by family dynamics and an unwavering passion for creativity. Born as the last child in a polygamous family, SEMAT’s upbringing was colored by the complexities of multiple family dynamics. Coming from a family where traditional values often blend with modern aspirations, SEMAT's experience growing up in such a unique environment has undoubtedly influenced both his personal development and his musical approach.
Growing up as the lastborn comes with its own challenges and advantages. Lastborns often inherit a mix of both freedom and responsibility, a combination that SEMAT appears to have turned into artistic energy. According to research, lastborns in large families tend to be more carefree, lively, and competitive, yet also seek approval and attention—qualities that seem to resonate in SEMAT’s stage presence and songwriting (Story Empire). These traits, along with the supportive but sometimes competitive atmosphere in a large family, have shaped SEMAT’s desire to stand out as not just a musician but as a performer.
