==Early life==
Sifa was born on December 24, 1988 in a village in Eastern Province, Rwanda to a middle-class family. His father sold plastic industrial products, and his family owned a car and employed servants to tend their coffee plantation. When Sifa was five years old, his father and older brother were murdered in the Rwandan Genocide. Sifa and his younger brother were separated from their mother and baby sister and avoided the violence by fleeing to the jungle where they remained for three months. After facing starvation in the jungle, Sifa decided to risk being murdered and reentered the village where he and his brother were reunited with their mother and sister at a Red Cross station.〔 When they returned to their house, they discovered a corrupt official had seized their property, so they lived in a small hut for several years until Sifa’s mother obtained the necessary papers from the Rwandan government to reclaim her property.〔 When she approached the government official about her property, he hired a gang to beat her and she died two weeks later from the beatings.〔
Sifa's aunt took in his brother and sister but because she could not afford to support him as well, he began living with a neighbor. Living in the same village where his family had been murdered was emotionally difficult for Sifa, so he ran away and became a street orphan.〔 For six years Sifa survived on the streets by singing for strangers on the streets for change, assisting merchants, carrying luggage, and gambling at marbles with other street kids.〔
