Early career
editFuego was born in San Francisco Bay, California.

Career
editIn 2013, Fuego co-wrote the song "Astronaut" for UK singer/songwriter Joel Compass, which was added to BBC 1.[4]
Styalz was involved in a string of multi-platinum singles from Peking Duk including the 2017 ARIA Song of The Year and 3× Platinum Stranger[5] with Elliphant,[6] the 4× Platinum single Take Me Over with Safia and Platinum Let You Down with Icona Pop. Styalz also co-produced Bliss n Eso's 2× Platinum single Moments with Gavin James,[7] The Aston Shuffle's Gold single Tear It Down, Seth Sentry's Gold album This Was Tomorrow and Drapht's ARIA Award-winning Seven Mirrors album.[8]
Styalz has seen an array of international releases, including the “Most Tweeted About Song of 2017”[9] Korean supergroup EXO's smash single Kokobop,[10] which propelled EXO's album The War to #1 in 41 countries on iTunes and now sits at over 1.5 million sales, including a Korean record 800,000 physical pre-orders. Through his other work in South Korea, Styalz also co-produced tracks for K-Pop royalty in EXO-CBX, Nu’Est, TVXQ and Henry Lau.
Styalz also worked on Ride or Die[11] for The Knocks & Foster The People, Phases[12] for ALMA and French Montana, Momma Always Told Me for G-Eazy,[13] Certified for Wiley and co-produced numerous Destructo singles with Ty Dolla $ign, Pusha T, E-40, Too Short, ILoveMakonnen and Starrah.
