His childhood was not an easy one.

Being the victorious survivor he always is, he found home among the African American community who embraced him as one of their own and nurtured him with their culture and hip-hop music. Amith was fascinated by the hip-hop genre which later became the roots of his music career. After graduating from high school and dropping out of school, he started his lifeÂs excursion in Los Angeles.

He had immense love for his motherland deeply rooted in his heart. He wanted to get to know people who would help him earn resources to heal Sri Lanka that was deeply wounded by the civil war of thirty years. His passion was always to bring back the economic and technical development he was blessed with in the US to the not- so- fortunate citizens in Sri Lanka. Miraculously, his dream became a reality, when his lifeÂs path crossed with that of the music kingpin, Akon.
