1. Estonian s… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least four artists/groups called Bizarre.
1. Estonian shoegaze group Bizarre came together in 1992. In the early stage they were largely influenced by the post - MBV dreampop scene. After causing a considerable stir in the underground, Bizarre released their debut cassette-only album called -Beautica- in spring 1994. It consisted of swirly, FX-ridden guitars, layers of hushy vocals and a sensitive atmosphere of beauty, melancholy and noise.
-Beautica- received very positive feedback and in alternative circles it was hugely successful. Although still in the frames of "normal music", -Beautica- already gave hints of the weirdness that followed... By that time the musical and mental landscape of the band had already grown far too... bizarre... to continue with the same kind of self-expression.therefore a 2-year old period followed, during which Bizarre recorded what would be the follow-up to the first tape. The only reason it took so long was that they were seldom completely satisfied with their tracks.
Throughout it's shortish career, Bizarre has had its own strong mentality as a band. They have always stood for escapism in music, support of the underground and contempt for the press. Bizarre are a circle of five vague figures (PR consultant of Tartu city government, photo model, neuronphase DJ, semiotics student and producer of radio ads) who are completely sure that they can express their way of living, conversations, views and memories into music. As many times as they have been interviewed they have come up with some words that describe Bizarre best: "beauty, despair, memories, dreams, substances, moodswings, escapism..." or, as one of Estonia's most progressive music critics Tiit Kusnets summed it up in one word: "relationshit".
Bizarre is not simply music, it's a mentality - fragile, educated and sensitive in its essence but most certainly indescribable in print. But it grows on you anyway. So get addicted...
2. Rufus Arthur Johnson, better known as Bizarre (born in Detroit, Michigan on July 5, 1976, is an American recording artist, best known for his work with Detroit hip-hop group, D12. More recently Rufus Johnson was featured on season 3 of VH1's Celebrity Fit Club.
He has appeared in many magazines including Rolling Stone and The Source. His story-telling rap style consists mostly of exaggerated instances of sex, child abuse, and rape (freely mentioning domestic violence, incest, and bestiality). It is mostly an attempt to be comedic, but also to vent the frustrations from his life and childhood.
An interview stating that Bizarre was interested in helping up and coming artists was played on the Tim Westwood show on BBC Radio 1 in January 2008. Subsequently Bizarre featured heavily on the single "Who the Fuck are You" with UK rapper SamuelVictor. When the track was premiered on BBC Radio 1 on September 11, 2008 the DJ and Producer recounted the story and said that it was the first time that a UK rapper had worked with Bizarre or D12, discounting their work with Gorillaz, as only D12 rapped on the track.
3. Death Metal band from Spain, formed in 2015.
4. Hardcore/Punk band from East Java, Indonesia

Girl, I got a crush on you
Girl, I got a crush on you
Girl, I got a crush on you
Girl, I got a crush on you
Girl, I got a crush on you

Girl, can you cook? "Hell yeah"
Cause I don't really care, how you look "You don't?"
Cause all I wanna do is.

The lyrics to Bizarre's song "Crush on You" are a playful expression of the rapper's attraction to a girl. The chorus repeats the line "Girl, I got a crush on you," emphasizing the intensity of Bizarre's feelings. He then compliments the girl on her style and offers to take her around his hometown, showcasing his pride in his roots. Bizarre even asks if she can cook, showing that he values a woman's domestic skills just as much as her appearance. However, the main message of the song seems to be Bizarre's desire to hold the girl, as he mumbles and repeats the line "All I wanna do is...hold you/hold me."
Some may interpret the lyrics as objectifying the girl and reducing her worth to her physical appearance and domestic abilities. However, it's important to note that the song's playful tone and exaggeration of masculine tropes suggest that Bizarre is not entirely serious in his lyrics. The chorus's repetitive nature and weird voice in the background add to the song's light-heartedness and humor.
