Personal life

Mitchell was born on August 29, 2006 in Atlanta, Georgia. He began experimenting with music production in 2021 during the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, initially under the alias ''murkio!''. Before pursuing music, he had no intentions of entering the industry. He was affiliated with the collective, 4ersona. His early work was influenced by the pluggnB and rage rap scenes. He has cited Lil Tecca, Chief Keef, Playboi Carti, and Paramore as his early music inspirations.

2020–2022: Career beginnings and breakthrough

Che began making music to SoundCloud under the alias murkio! in 2021. Under his former stage name, cheRomani+, his breakout came in August 2021 with the remix to Yeat's "Off Tha Lot", which gained significant traction on TikTok, amassing millions of streams.

In December 2021, Mitchell's single, "Agenda", was released and drew lots of attention on various social media platforms. Following the success of it, he then follows up with a sequel, "The Final Agenda", which again also received praise from the underground community, helping elevate his name in the industry. In May 2022, he released his debut EP titled ''3'', blending traditional underground styles with experimental elements.
