about mazy...
—-—-—-—-—-MAZY BIO-—-—-—-—-—-——
Mazy was borned in the north of Sweden in 1977 and was living on her own in Stockholm at the age of 16. When she appeared on the “Alla talar svenska” compilation in 1998 she became the first female mc in history to rap and release anything in Swedish ever. However, Mazy soon decided to focus on writing songs in English instead and signed to the publisher Jimmy Fun. Mazy recieved critical interest and attention in the Swedish media ( SVT Rapport Morgon, Z-TV, Vecko-Revyn, Svendetta, Damernas Varld, P3 Soul etc ) before she even released a demo, but Mazy never signed with a major label. Mazy has never been interested in compromising her raw style or her lyrics which led to her signing off from Jimmy Fun in 2001, and instead decided to release the debut EP ” Beats N Therapy” with the Czech underground label Bbarak. The same year Mazy was headlining at the infamous Hiphop Kemp in Czech Republic.
Her lyrics has been published in books such as “Ord fran Moder Svea” and she has been holding lectures about rap and writing rhymes at Kulturhuset and Fryshuset in Stockholm. In 2004 Mazy, DJ Kahn, Klaeboe and the producer team SoulFanatix hooked up and started the group Digableistic and in the same year the groupsigned with PPB Records and released their jazz influenced album Digable.
Today Mazy lives in London and works as a solo artist. She has appeared on several compilations and mixtapes in Sweden and Europe and her reputation keeps growing. At the moment Mazy is working on a new EP that will be released in 2006…stay tuned!
