Raised in Ontario, CA, Hazels musical journey began in his early teens as a member of his group called Abstrakt, and soon was known as Durty Mouth . Learning the basics of music, Hazel started a process of artistic exploration that is still evolving today. I grew up on the Rap scene of the mid 90s . But I also would listen to Chicano rap, R&NB, Reggaeton, rock , Underground, and etc. When I got older, I started to learn about the older generation, more like different structures as an upcoming rap artists as well as a producer.
Hazelss love for music and his magical talent made him realize that his dream of having a singing career was a real possibility. Upon graduating from high school, he signed with one small independent music label, but nothing ever materialized. I have learned a lot about the music business early in my career. make sure that you make your music with anyone who wants to work with u ... much more like planting a seed for yourself. That way u kan expose yourself more. Hazel is now getting ready to present his much anticipated debut album to the world in 2009.
