==Early life==
As a child, Rozik was diagnosed with [[dwarfism]], a growth hormone deficiency which could be cured with appropriate medical treatment. However, his family could not afford to have him treated, leading to his stunted growth.<ref>{{cite news|title=Bigg Boss 16 Contestant Abdu Rozik talk about his medical condition that stopped him from growing|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/entertainment/tv/bigg-boss-16-contestant-abdu-rozik-talks-about-his-medical-condition-that-stopped-him-from-growing-101664689113581.html|work=Hindustan Times|access-date=24 November 2022}}</ref>

Due to his family's poverty, Rozik was often out of school. He sang for tips in markets and on streets of [[Panjakent]] in [[Tajikistan]]; along with his family, Rozik also had a beloved pet cat named Renzo, a [[British Shorthair]], who brought him a lot of joy during difficult times.<ref name=":2">{{cite web |title=Watch:Tajik Internet sensation Abdu Rozik trades mic for boxing mitts |url=https://gulfnews.com/uae/watch-tajik-internet-sensation-abdu-rozik-trades-mic-for-boxing-mitts-1.80827971 |access-date=26 November 2022 |work=Gulf News|date=23 July 2021 }}</ref>

==Career==
Beginning in 2019, Rozik received mentorship and financial support from Tajikistani rapper-blogger Baron (Behruz). Baron even convinced Rozik's father to let Rozik pursue singing. After getting permission, Rozik and Baron moved to [[Dubai]], UAE.<ref name=":2" />

Rozik sang various Tajikistani songs like ''Ohi Dili Zor'', ''Chaki Chaki Boron'' and ''Modar''. In 2021, he uploaded a video of him singing the Hindi song ''Enna Sona'' by [[Arijit Singh]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.news18.com/news/buzz/hasbullas-rival-abdu-rozik-just-dropped-enna-sona-cover-and-its-adorable-4550204.html|title=Hasbulla's Rival Abdu Rozik Just dropped Enna Sona Cover and it's adorable|access-date=24 November 2022|work=News18|date=13 December 2021 }}</ref> In 2022, he was invited to attend the [[22nd IIFA Awards]] ceremony in [[Abu Dhabi]], [[United Arab Emirates]], where he sang the Hindi song "Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga" from the 1994 film ''[[1942: A Love Story]]''. He dedicated the song to [[Salman Khan]].<ref>{{cite news|title=Salman Khan meets Tajikistani-Based singer and fan Abdu Rozik|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/salman-khan-meets-tajikistan-based-singer-and-fan-abdu-rozik-see-video-7953815/|work=The Indian Express|access-date=24 November 2022}}</ref>

In 2021, he challenged Russian MMA fighter and media personality [[Hasbulla Magomedov]], who also has [[dwarfism]], to a fight, but the Russian Dwarf Athletic Association (RDAA) did not approve, calling it unethical.<ref>{{cite web|title=Hasbulla shuts down prospect of fight with social media rival Abdu Rozik|url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/other-sports/mma/hasbulla-abdu-rozik-fight-ufc-25675122|access-date=2 December 2022|work=The Mirror|date=11 December 2021 }}</ref>{{Citation needed|date=April 2023|reason=The other source doesn't say anything about a dwarf association condemning the fight}}
