Bio

Wize is the name! But before he ever dawned this alias, he fell in love with an artform known as hip-hop at the tender age of eight years old. Blessed with the gift of vivid expression of truth through lyricism and a vast amount of life experiences, he decided he had a story to tell. Wize started to perfect his craft by writing poems, stories, and has begun writing a novel that has yet to be titled. An intellectual, to say the least, his lyrics paint a picture of things yet to be seen, while also focusing on everyday struggles. Through his passion of hip-hop, he's found a way to relate to a wide audience, all different ages. He's now the head of a production company he started in 2006, called "New Black Pride" and is currently working on getting a label deal. He released his first official hip-hop mixtape in October of 2006 entitled "Streetwize vol. 1". The follow up to that mixtape, "Streetwize vol. 2: Hustlin' 4 Growth", is planned to be released in March '07. With heartfelt music and a fanbase that's gradually growing, "Da Wize One", seems to have a promising future. In the words of Wize "He was born to do this!".
