Early Life & Background
Bobby Wardel Sandimanie III known by his stage name Destroy Lonely was born on July 30, 2001, in Atlanta, Georgia. He grew up with two younger sisters and an older half-brother, although he often felt more like an only child due to the age difference.
In his early years, Lonely embarked on a unique educational path. In the sixth grade, he began homeschooling with the permission of his grandmother, who happened to be a former teacher.
This alternative approach to education allowed him the freedom to explore his creativity and dedicate more time to his musical pursuits.
