Anashe Ithiel Chizhande, known as KindlyNxsh or Young Soldier, is a 22-year-old artist from Johannesburg, born on January 4, 2003. He began his music career at 15, inspired by animated show soundtracks and SoundCloud artists, and dropped out of school to pursue music full-time. Naturally adept with computers, he quickly learned to produce and engineer music professionally, eventually working with prominent South African artists such as Blxckie, Sjava, AKA, Costa Titch, and Nadia Nakai.
In January 2024, seeking to establish himself as an all-around artist, KindlyNxsh decided to focus on producing and performing his own music. He independently released tracks like "Where Did You Go?", "Militant Mayne", and "Military Basin," gaining significant attention. His breakthrough came with the hit single "Eish Chief" in June 2024, which amassed over 1,000,000 streams within a month.
