I’m Chad Samuels, a multi-talented creative from Cape Town, South Africa, with roots in both South Africa and the United States (North Carolina).

I grew up going between the two countries but completed my schooling and have lived all my life here in Cape Town.

My passion for creativity has been a driving force throughout my life. I’m a trained vocalist, songwriter, and music producer, with over 10 years of experience releasing original music, shooting music videos, and editing visual content. I graduated with honors from Cape Audio College with a Diploma in sound engineering.

In addition to music, I have explored other creative fields, including studying Fashion Design at CPUT. I play piano (5 years of training) and have been taking vocal lessons since the age of 14. My artistic work focuses on positivity, ambition, and inspiring others to achieve their dreams.

Sports have also played a big role in shaping my discipline and work ethic. I’ve been active in athletics, rugby, soccer, basketball, water polo, and cricket, but my greatest sporting achievement was in tennis — representing South Africa for at a national level and ranking in the country’s top 20 before fully committing to my creative career.

Outside of performing, I work as a Technical Operator at the SABC, giving me valuable experience in television and live production environments. This role has strengthened my confidence both behind and in front of the camera, making me adaptable to different on-set situations.

I bring passion, professionalism, and a willingness to learn to every opportunity. I’m eager to expand into new creative avenues, including modelling, acting, and brand collaborations, while continuing to inspire and connect with audiences through my work.
