SK Blue was born in Nairobi as Samuel Kuria in a family of six (one brother four sisters) he was raised in a Christian family with both his parents. He started school at St Joseph Nursery School (BuruBuru) then joined primary school at Bidii Primary School (BuruBuru) later shifted from school to others due to his family shifting residence i.e. (mto primary (Molo) Kampala primary (Molo) crater primary and Molo Academy.) SK Blue joined high school at Kirangari High School (lower kabete) where he was actively involved in music festivals, debate clubs and Christian union where he was an official.

SK Blue's calling started at a tender age where he used to sing and minister through word at his home church and at various conferences and seminars, where he used to mainly speak. "I got a calling at the age of 12 into the ministry of reconciliation. Jesus appeared to me at the age of 12 and 14 and gave me a trip to heaven, that's when he confirmed to me that he had ordained me for an assignment to be a praise and worshiper. He told me that he has sent me to the ends of the world to preach the good news."

The name SK Blue actually holds the them of his ministry; SK are the initials of my names Samuel Kuria and Blue is symbolic, with reference to the gates of the tabernacle. There were three colors and blue was one. Blue symbolizes Jesus Christ (as we know -: 1.Jesus is the chief reconciliatory, 2.blue also symbolizes authority.) so SK Blue means I am called into the ministry of reconciliation to preach in authority. My heartbeat is on the will of the father; he has given me a passion and a burden for souls, a vision and an implementation plan that I am ready and willing to follow.
