YNG SAINT

Tyresse Olwethu Morgan, known by his stage name YNG SAINT, is a multifaceted artist whose music draws from a rich blend of influences, spanning Afro, Gospel, Jazz, R&B, and hip-hop. Raised in a musically diverse family, his late mother was a singer that had Afro and Gospel roots. His father’s jazz and R&B legacy laid the foundation for his passion. However, it was his older brother’s introduction to hip-hop in 2015 that set him on the path to rap, inspired by artists like Drake, Lil Wayne, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Aka, A-Reece and Nasty C.

YNG SAINT’s journey deepened when he met his first producer, Boy Juvenile, who mentored him in the studio and helped him master the art of live performance. This connection led to collaborations with close friend, Ofentse Mowera also known as Cliche, culminating in their 2022 album MAD BRACE, a project that marked a significant but temporary milestone in their careers.

Now in 2025, YNG SAINT is stepping into the spotlight, having earned a co-sign from South African hip-hop legend pH Raw X. His debut solo EP, THE COMMIX, Vol. 1 with a total of 7 tracks featuring Cliche and Iceforreal (now known as Sims, the servant) on the 7th track, Titled "SILENCE". THE COMMIX, Vol. 1 is set to launch his solo career and showcase his musical growth. With his unique sound and powerful storytelling, YNG SAINT is ready to leave a lasting mark on the global hip-hop scene.
