 “After suddenly losing the investors for my hiphop album, I found myself unemployed with a stagnant music career…. I had to rebuild.”
 

4-IZE doesn’t know defeat. Inspired by the improv scene in Atlanta, he rebranded with a fusion of comedy and rap and started a #VerseADay campaign to hone his freestyle craft. It didn’t go unnoticed—Snoop Dogg reposted his verse getting him an instant move into the spotlight. 

He’s kept the momentum going, dropping an album with his hiphop collective, ULTRA BEAST, titled ‘UNITED’. His most recent solo project however,  “LOOK INTO MY IZE” has solidified his spot as a rapper on the rise. Featuring the talents of Ludacris, Talib Kweli and Swizz Beats, ’LOOK INTO MY IZE’ was called “One of the best albums of 2020” by AllHipHop.  Check out more of 4-IZE work at UltraBeastUnited.com

“I never use my craft to capitalize or gain recognition, but to help clients heal.”

 

@BookProductions channels his talents for the community. From bringing cultural icons to life, to commemorating the loss of loved ones, his murals hit deep. As a single father of triplets, he’s motivated to keep bringing something valuable to the world. 

Want to see more of his work?  “Social media is a great start. But I still carry a physical portfolio in my backpack. You never know who you’ll come across who needs inspiration.”

“I want to be an inspiration to the young people from Liberia trying to be a producer/artist.”  

 

King Dozee pays homage to his Liberian roots while bringing a fresh cross-over of other music genres, including R&B and HipCo —hiphop mixed with “Coloqua”. Ranked #1 in Tennessee on Reverbnation’s R&B and Soul Chart, he continues to push the boundaries and make moves.

His latest album drop, ‘BIG BOY DOZEE’ released last month is an anthem to the ladies. Inspired by his female fan base, he wanted to give them something they could vibe to—streaming now on all major platforms.

I’m a working man who decided to take the legitimate route of maintaining a household first, then creating my path as an artist. Being the example and rising is literally the American dream breathed, rather than preached with no action.

    E&J is a staple of many of our young adulthood as this one of the first brands to introduce us to the spirits. Our inner city upbringings we're filled with cash and this was an affordable drink of quality. In essence E&J taught many of us how to drink responsibly, great nights with unforgettable people, thank you for exisiting. My Artist bio is below.

    Co-Signed at an early age by LL-Cool-J and Introduced to the world in 2011 by Joe Budden at his album release concert, Hip Hop and Mixed Media Artist Notgleams continues to shine. Dropping a slew of projects, videos and making appearances everywhere he can. He has been compared with the likes of Lupe Fiasco for his well thought out concepts and punch lines. Kanye West for his wit and Joe Budden for his depth and story telling skills. While still managing to have developed his own sound which he continues to expand upon.
