Even while in prison, his heart had been hardened by the life that this youngster had led, leading him into trouble while in Leeukop and spending time in isolation. His time in isolation became a blessing in disguise, because it gave him time to meditate on his life and future. In isolation is where Bruno discovered his love for music and writing. Thus the first new breed of lyricist was born. Hailing from Kagiso also living a life of crime Fistos was sent to Leeukop prison for six years for robbery. Fistos was part of a prison rehab programme and was given a guitar by the programme. While in prison he harnessed his skill with the guitar.
