Unique. If there is one word to describe SMZ, then that is surely it. Born to a mixed couple he has never fit into any traditional classification. Just as likely to spend a Saturday playing football as Dungeons & Dragons. Regardless of what he's doing however, he excels at it. Picking up the mic only about a year and a half ago, he is already gathering attention due to, above all else, his extraordinarily rapid elevation. His lyrics display an intellectualism uncommon to be mixed with culturally conscience themes. Influenced further by his strong faith and wide gambit of interests, his words will leave you forced to acknowledge an emerging master of the art. Love ballads, Story-telling tracks, Intellectual rants, Battle disses and Freestyles... SMZ does it all. Expect a compilation or mixtape in the near future.
