Early and personal life

Scott was born in Greenwich, South East London. He is of Jamaican and Bajan descent. During his childhood, Scott was heavily inspired by the music his family was listening to, including a variety of Jamaican artists. By the time he was attending school, he and his friends had started rapping.
On 24 May 2020, Scott was involved in a car crash near London's Trafalgar Square. A Ferrari 488 rented for a music video shoot crashed into a London bus on Northumberland Avenue. After the crash, he posted videos of the smashed car onto his Instagram account. No injuries were sustained and no arrests were made.

Football career

During his teenage years, Scott was a talented footballer and played for the youth academies of Fulham, Charlton Athletic and Southend United. While at Southend, he had a short loan spell at National League South club East Thurrock United. He was then released by Southend in 2016.
After being released, Scott signed for Isthmian League side Cray Wanderers. In 2017, Scott signed for National League South club Whitehawk. In 2018, he quit football to pursue his music career even further.

Music career

Scott started making music as a hobby alongside his youth football career. He originally started making freestyles on Soundcloud, where he went by the name Swarmzy-B, which he later shortened to Swarmz when he started making music professionally. He released his first video, titled "Money" in 2017 which picked up over 200k views on YouTube. He then released another single, titled "Murda" in early 2018. His breakthrough single, "Lyca", was released later that year. After the single went viral, he was signed to Virgin Records.
