“Four years ago… a father who believed so much in his 17-year-old talented son sent me a DM to listen to his son’s music. Unfortunately, I didn’t see that message as my DMs were clogged,” Don Jazzy wrote in a video post.
“Two years later, he didn’t give up… he kept developing himself, and destiny still placed him on the path with Mavin. After excelling in the Mavin Academy, he is now 21 years old and ready to take on the next phase of his musical career. Allow me to introduce you all to the newest Mavin artist @cupidfszn 🏹 as he presents his debut EP MYTH ERA.”

Born Stevenson Njoku Anyinachiso in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, CupidSZN's musical journey began after watching a video of Juice WRLD. Initially drawn to trap music, he later shifted his focus to Afrobeats, embracing a sound that would define his artistry.

Skipping university to pursue music full-time, CupidSZN faced initial hesitation from his parents, yet his determination never wavered. By 2023, his family fully relocated with him to Lagos to support his musical ambitions, a move that underscores the strong foundation behind his career.

CupidSZN has already made waves with notable singles, including the 2024 track 'Service' produced by Ozedikus and Kamal. In 2025, he released 'I Want More,' a flirtatious track showcasing his playful side, and collaborated with Wademix on 'Osogeme,' a song celebrating youthful attraction with a soft-whining charm.
