Sihle Jiyana, popularly known as The Boy Slade is a Dance Music DJ currently based in Johannesburg, South Africa, Born in Soweto and raised in the West of Johannesburg in Roodepoort which is where he spent majority of his life.
His love for music grew on him at an early age because he spent alot of time in studio growing up, not making music, he had close family friends that were musicians and he would always sit in their studio sessions and from there he then fell in love with the idea of being involved in music not knowing what role he exactly wanted to play until he came across the art of being a DJ.
