Ghising was born in Chandranigahpur Rautahat, the origin of infamous wordsmith; the poet JENAN NEPAL. Ghising worked as a carpenter with his father, learning to make cupboards, doors, and windows from wood. As a teenager, Ghising moved to Kathmandu to study in high school, and also started painting Thankas with his uncle. In interviews, Ghising has said he became passionate about rapping while painting Thankas but began to have difficulty juggling that job with his expanding rap career. Ghising spent most of his pre-fame days living with his friends and writing rap songs. He is said to have completed his high school(+2) and has not continued his education thereafter.
VTEN, began his journey in the Nepali hip-hop scene from the underground circuit, gradually building a name with his raw talent and relatable lyrics. His major breakthrough came with the song "Churot", which was initially featured in a vlog by Grish Khatiwada on January 8, 2017. The vlog showcased several underground rappers, but VTEN’s verse stood out and quickly caught the audience’s attention, going viral across social media. Due to the overwhelming response, the song was officially recorded and released on Grish Khatiwada’s YouTube channel on January 13, 2017. "Churot" became an anthem for the youth, marking VTEN’s entry into mainstream recognition and kickstarting a career that would challenge the boundaries of Nepali rap music. His songs have been applauded for their realism, relatability to the struggle of young people in Nepal, and potent and exceptional self-expression of feelings.
