Elman Zeynalov was born 18 November 1993 in Sumgait. His father died before he was born, and thus his mother and stepfather raised him.

In 2017 Elman released the song «Адреналин», and his contract with Warner Music Russia ended. That year he participated in the show Fabrika Zvoyzd on Muz-TV, taking 4th place.[5] his producer was Viktor Drobysh, but his contract was eventually terminated.[6] He wrote cover verses for popular songs and posted them to Instagram. In 2018, Elman started the label RAAVA Music, signing at the time three artists — Andro, JONY and himself, as well as a sound engineer.[7]
Elman married Margarite Tsoi on 6 December 2019.[8] The couple have one child, a girl named Mariel who was born in 2020.[9]
