Born in Laeken, a commune of Brussels, to parents of Moroccan origin, he formed the hip hop band Kilogramme Gang as an adolescent with his friends Triton and MK. He also used the logo "Saucegod".[1] The band released the urban project Gotham City Vol. 1. Hamza composed the beats used by the band.

After meeting Dakose, he resumed his musical activity with the latter as his manager.[2] In May 2015, he released the mixtape H-24 exclusively on the site HauteCulture.com, gaining public attention in Belgium and France.[3] This was followed by the project Zombie Life with wider appeal, and in 2016, the EP New Casanova with dancehall beats.[4] In December 2016, he added the mixtape Santa Sauce, made available for free on SoundCloud.
The mixtape 1994 has been his major chart success,[5] [6] making it to number 13 on the French Belgian albums chart and to number 9 in France. A number of singles also charted including "Life", "Vibes" and "Paradise".
His debut studio album Paradise was released in March 2019. The album includes featurings with Aya Nakamura, Christine & the Queens, Oxmo Puccinno, 13 Block, SCH, and A.CHAL.[7] In December, he released the mixtape Santa Sauce 2 which featured Damso, Koba LaD and Gambi.
