Personal life

Andrzejewski was born on 17 September 1976 in the former dzielnica of Jeżyce. He was raised in a working class family, his mother died when he was 12 years old. As described by Peja on the track Doskonały Przykład, his father, Waldemar, was a life-long alcoholic and violent abuser who invited other addicts to party in their home. Peja's early life was marked by violence, as well as interventions by the police and social care. His father died in 1996 of a tumour.

Inspired by the 1988 Seoul Olympics, Ryszard took up judo training and trained as part of the Olimpia Poznań club in the years 1988–1995. Ryszard became a Polish Youth Judo Champion two times, in 1991 and 1992. In 2005, he received a silver badge from the Polish Judo Association for his contribution to the sport in the country.

Since he was 15 years of age, Andrzejewski has been an ardent supporter of Lech Poznań, becoming active in the hooligan scene in the 90s.
