About this user

There's a worldly elegance to Dizzy. He exudes a poet's focus on life's emotions. He parlays his creative flare through raps, while sprinkling his R&B sensibilities. While still a young man, his ability to peel away the layers of emotion lends to his power as a man of the soul. Shallow commentary rarely survives his creative process. Instead, he channels his perspectives, gut-feelings and aspirations through melodic, often gentle raps. A man that knows who he is may be strong, but a man who questions his own being is enlightened. Dizzy is deep.
In Montreal, Dizzy grew up singing in the school choir and playing instruments. Only in grade school, he already started tapping into his inner musician.
"People are surprised when I rap," says Dizzy. "Just because I don't fit with how you think of a rapper. I'm not loud, in your face. I'm content with how I am though, because at the end of the day the music when I say my piece."
His family soon moved to Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area. Track & basketball were a big deal so he joined the teams and got involved. But at 16 he went to a new school, which didn't offer these sports. At the time, he was disappointed. But as it would turn out, the lack of sports left space in his mind to pick up a pen. This is when he started writing poetry, simply for his own amusement and emotional process.
"I'm the type of person who doesn't show too much emotion in my facial expressions, plus I'm quiet," says Dizzy. "So a lot of times people hear my music and have no idea I have so much going on in my head. But I'm more likely to write down how I'm feeling than to stand up and tell you."
His reserved demeanor allows his ideas and emotions to concentrate in his music because it's their only outlet. Soon Dizzy was mimicking popular songs like Capadonna's "The Pillage." He'd be listening to well-known influences like Nas, Wu Tang, Mos Def & Talib Kweli and envision himself in their shoes, feeling what they felt. But it wasn't enough, it wasn't fulfilling. He felt numb, because he wasn't figuring out his own identity. So instead of trying to be like rappers he had nothing in common with, he switched paths and started developing his own lane.
His intense, poetic tendencies made this transition natural. While he didn't have much experience with the intricacies of rapping, he had an acute understanding of his life's pulse. He started recording and would soon graduate to performing at local showcases and open mics in downtown Toronto.
"Those early shows were bad, but I understand the creative process and performing is no different," says Dizzy. "I just needed to get out there and do it. Now I'm light years ahead of where I was."
Once he gained some steam, both his confidence and his aspirations took off. He went through a self inflicted artist development period for the next four years starting in 2006, recording and releasing three mixtapes: Dizmality (2006), The Rebirth (2007) and The Growth (2009). He submitted his first song to radio in 2009 and WHAT ABOUT WBLK? Furthermore, he's added songwriter to his repertoire. Penning R&B vocals for others gives Dizzy a newfound creative freedom.
"I went from being hindered because I was writing from someone else's perspective to focusing on myself and what I am and want to be," says Dizzy. "Now I'm actually able to write lyrics from a perspective that may be outside my personal thoughts, but fit nicely when sung by other artists."
With a little momentum and some solid experience now under his belt, Dizzy puts his future on his own shoulders.
"'My Granny told me life is what you make it/ so every opportunity out there I'ma take it,'" raps Dizzy on "Fearless" "That's how I approach everything, especially music. When I see an opportunity to network with people in the industry or get exposure I jump at it. If I were to just lay back and expect something to come at me, I'd never get anywhere. So it's all about how much time, effort and passion I put into it."
