Sador Fessahaye, or better known to fans as Sandman Negus, was born January 12, 1986 in Bulgaria. Although Sandman is from Eritrea, the war between Ethiopia and Eritrea forced his family to migrate to different countries in Africa leading to his birth in Bulgaria. Due to the war and government corruption, the Fessahaye family could not obtain Sadors birth certificate and shortly after his mother gave birth, the family was forced to relocate to Sudan. In 1993, at the age of 7, the Fessahaye family moved to the United States in hope of a better future for their family. The family settled in Los Angeles, California to begin their new life. Sador was enrolled in school and began second grade at Hyde Park Elementary. On February 5, 1997 Sadors eldest brother died from gangrene and this tragedy took a heavy toll on young Sador. His brother was always someone he looked up to and admired. From that day on, Sador began writing and rapping. A piece of Sador had died and Sandman Negus was born. Not only was his brother his inspiration to begin writing, but also influential rappers such as Tupac Shakur and Nas
