Upstate New York’s John Bizz has been steadily making his mark in the music scene for the past decade. His journey, driven by passion and an unshakable dedication to hip-hop and RnB, kicked off with his debut project, A Perfect Time, which laid the groundwork for his rise as an independent artist. Influenced by legends like Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Fabolous, and Dipset, John has crafted a distinctive sound that merges the grittiness of hip-hop with the smoothness of RnB.
Despite his ten years in the industry, John Bizz shows no signs of slowing down. He’s always in the studio creating, consistently dropping singles as he waits for the right moment to release another full project. His latest single, Trap Olympics, which features Fuego Base of BSF and SixTheDon, highlights his ability to collaborate with emerging talent and deliver raw, street-heavy tracks that resonate with listeners. Yet, when asked about his dream collaboration, he points to A Boogie, another New York artist whose melodic flow complements John’s hip-hop and RnB blend.
A true independent artist, John Bizz writes all of his music and often develops his own video concepts. He gives credit where it’s due, praising his visual collaborators, Rugz and Riley Balcom, as “the GOATs” for bringing his ideas to life. Unlike many artists, John takes pride in being his own biggest supporter, stating, “You gotta want it more than anyone else,” a mindset that’s kept him pushing forward in the competitive music industry.
With new singles dropping regularly and tracks like Outside and Switched Up in the pipeline, John is setting himself up for long-term success. Touring with Benny The Butcher is one of his goals, and he also dreams of performing in Puerto Rico, where he believes his energy and sound could captivate a fresh audience. His most memorable performance so far was a sold-out show in Saratoga, where over a thousand fans vibed to his music. And that’s just the start for him.
Working with fellow New Yorker Soundgoat, John’s music stands out with its authentic storytelling, sharp beats, and ever-evolving vision. In five years, John Bizz envisions himself on tour, connecting with fans worldwide and cementing his place in hip-hop. For now, he remains focused on honing his craft, letting the music speak for itself. Keep an eye on him—John Bizz is on the verge of something big.
