== Early life == Gaynor grew up in the Adelaide suburb of Blackwood. He was raised Catholic and attended Blackwood High School and Mercedes College (Adelaide). Gaynor played in a short-lived punk band in high school, which generated his interest in music. In 2011 Gaynor said "I basically grew up in the hip hop scene; I would have been about 11 years old when I went to my first show." In his youth, he had jobs at a pie shop, a pizza shop and Nando's. Gaynor started writing music at 11 years old but, due to a lack of equipment, he did not begin recording his music until he was 18.
