πΆ Childhood
Maelys Verhoeven was born in the bustling port city of Antwerp, a place alive with art, fashion, and culture. The only child of a jazz musician father and a graphic designer mother, she grew up in an apartment full of colors, vinyl records, and drawings on the walls.
By the age of 5, she was already fascinated by music, spending hours tinkering with her fatherβs old turntable and inventing her own βchoreographiesβ in front of the mirror. Her mother passed on her love for art, giving Maelys her first sketchbooks, which she filled tirelessly.
Neighbors still remember her as a little red-haired girl with a sparkling laugh, decorating the sidewalks with colorful chalk.

πΈ Teen Years β The Inner Fire
At 14, Maelys discovered hip-hop dance and Belgian rap β a revelation. She swapped her childhood ballet shoes for high-top sneakers and spent hours training in dance studios, sometimes scraping her knees in the process.
At school, she was known for her eccentric style: a mix of bright colors, handmade jewelry, and unique hairstyles. Her energy both attracted and unsettled people; some admired her, others thought she was βtoo different.β But Maelys embraced her uniqueness, often responding with a cheeky smile or a well-timed punchline.
It was also around this time that she received her first pair of headphones from her father, which she never took off. Music became her refuge, her driving force, her identity.
