Lyta works cuts across various genres such as bongo from Tanzania, dancehall from Jamaica, amapiano from South Africa, afrobeat from Nigeria, and many others.

This does not, however, affect his work as he has mastered various genres from different countries across Africa. Regarding preference of genres of songs, Lyta admits to being passionate about HipHop music since his childhood. He has consequently gained thousands of followers on various platforms where he shares his new audio and videos. This enabled him to not only counter some of the challenges he was experiencing before but also monetize his content. He took advantage of the internet and transitioned from selling his work in compact discs to sharing them online. The growth of music streaming platforms such as YouTube popularized Lyta's mixes and widened his fan base. The DJ was also at one point on the spot after he differed strongly with some of the musicians who had demanded that DJs pay before using an artist's song. His career at the time was met with a lot of challenges with the major ones being a move by music societies to crack on piracy. Thereafter, Lyta started producing short mixes in compact discs (CDs) which were sold in the streets of Nairobi.

His interest saw him take a short course in audio production to advance his knowledge of music. The celebrated DJ developed an interest in music after playing with Virtual DJ software. After completing his secondary education successfully, he joined Zetech college where he pursued a diploma in Information Technology.
