Hailing from Brooklyn, New York and surviving a stray bullet to the face, ARTZ traded comfort for sacrifice becoming an independent artist at 17 years old and putting his focus into pursuing his dreams. Since then ARTZ has went on to receive major radio play, press and co-signs from Hot 97's DJ Enuff, Peter Rosenberg, Revolt , Rap Radar & more. His grind has also landed him collaborations with a host of artists including Emeli Sandé, Ari Lennox & more.
