While attending University, DeeKay then known by his former stage name of Arlaylay participated in the Channel O Sprite Mcee Africa competition, performed at annual fashion shows, homecoming (akwaba), and all the hall weeks on and off campus. After graduating from Takoradi Polytechnic with a degree in Building Technology and fueled by the positive and passionate responses to his early freestyles and music by his peers , DeeKay took the bold stance to pursue music full time.
He partnered with a friend, Big Dele of Impeccable Entertainment and began working his various freestyles and songs within the Ghanaian market. It was then at a chance meeting with the young African superstar , David "Davido" Adeleke that the start of DeeKay's relationship with Davido HKN music began.

Music is LIFE, it is the way I find best to express myself and illustrate my inner thoughts and feelings".
