Here are all the details.
The masked rapper keeps not just his personal details private, but even his appearance.
Always spotted in a bally or a hard plastic mask, his face is unknown.
What we do know, is that he has almond eyes, hence the Timothee Chalamet comparisons.

Until he himself reveals, or takes his mask off, it is unknown.

A fan theory appeared online earlier this year, drawing a comparison between EsDeeKid and Timothee Chalamet.
They thought they had very similar eyes, with that being the only facial feature the rapper ever shows.

The music video, set in London, featured both of the sought-after celebrities side-by-side, dispelling the idea that they were the same person.
It was a truly epic end to the rumours, with fans freaking out globally.
