The Qwabe twins, Virginia and Viggy, were born in 1997 to Lawrence Qwabe, the founder of the Pure Freedom Christ church in Nonoti, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Growing up in a solid Christian background, the twins were exposed to music from a young age, singing in the church choir and composing their own songs to perform among friends.
The twins attended Nonoti Primary School and Senior Secondary School, where they honed their musical talents by performing at school talent shows and events. Their love for music only grew stronger, and they began to dream of a career in the entertainment industry.
