After witnessing his father's stabbing in Nørrebro, Copenhagen in the late 80's, the boy that was soon to become $vai-Rex emigrated with his mother to their neighbouring country in the North, escaping the violence of the Danish underworld. As a teenager in Bergen, Norway $vai-Rex gained notoriety for both his ambigious accent and his affinity for selling cocaine, adopting a Lucha Libre-mask to conceal his identity. After a brief stint in prison, the aspiring pusher turned his witts to the mic, and soon became one of Norway's pioneers within the trap-genre. After working with acts like Hester V75, Pasha and Yoguttene, $vai Rex was able to score a minor club hit with the song Patrik $vaisi (produced by the famed Norwegian producers Basmo Fam), even gaining international radioplay - while trap music in Norway was still confined to the underground. Then he suddenly vanished, only to be seen in occasional TV-interviews. After a three year hiatus $vai-Rex released the single MIKE $TODDER FREE$TYLE in collaboration with producer-extraordinaire Dollar Nill$. An EP is scheduled for release in 2020.
