Born and raised in Southern California, SwizZz is not your stereotypical MC. Through his music, SwizZz reveals a wide range of experiences, much of which he credits to his biracial background. He is not, nor does he claim to be, a “thug” or a “gangsta”, but prides himself on being able to reach the masses by being honest about his confrontations with life’s challenges. It is not always glamorous or positive, but you can count on SwizZz being true to himself.
After high school SwizZz got accepted into the University of California at Irvine, but after two years he has decided put his education on hold in order to pursue a career in music. He was having a hard time figuring out what he wanted to major in, and because he couldn’t find anything he was passionate about in school, he didn’t want to continue down a path in which he was not going to put forth 100% of his effort. SwizZz strives for perfection, and quite frankly, mediocrity is not an option.
Since dropping out of college SwizZz has been in the studio, grinding away at his music. While working on all elements of his craft from songwriting and storytelling, to his physical fitness and image, he still finds time to bless the mic with a freestyle session. And SwizZz’s freestyles are always off the top, never written, never rehearsed. Some folks have described his style as “real”, “raw”, “loony”, “creative”, “insightful”, and “authentic”. But however you want to describe him the man is a unique talent.
SwizZz is inspired by all type of music, from hip-hop and alternative rock, to trance and R&B. If you got a hold of his iPod, then you would find Jay-Z, Canibus, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, 2pac, Eminem, DMX, NaS, Taking Back Sunday, The Used, and Circa Survive just to name a few of the many artists that he is a fan of. He has released various mixtapes including Haywire with Hopsin, and Good Morning SwizZzle. He is currently working on his untitled debut studio album.
A pivotal player in the Funk Volume movement, he plans to help us usher in a whole new era of music and develop up-and-coming artists.

The lyrics of SwizZz's song "Too Far Gone" are introspective and emotional, discussing the rapper’s struggles with addiction and personal demons. The song begins with him reflecting on his past decisions and how they have led him to this point of hopelessness and desperation. He acknowledges that he has strayed too far from the person he once was, and that he cannot continue down this path.
The second verse is a powerful testament to the grip of addiction and how it can feel like a constant battle. He describes his inner turmoil and the feeling of being trapped, unable to escape his own mind. The chorus is a plea for help, a cry for someone to save him from himself.
The third verse shows the rapper coming to terms with the impact of his addiction on those around him, and how he has hurt the people he loves. He realizes that he needs to make a change in order to repair his relationships and his own wellbeing. The song ends on a note of hope, with the artist stating that he is ready to seek help and take back control of his life.

This repeated word serves as a hook to catch the attention of the audience.
Life is filled with ups and downs like these: it's a wave
Life is unpredictable and has its fair share of challenges and triumphs.
I've been up, I've been down, sometimes I was misplaced
I have experienced both success and failure, and sometimes I felt lost.
I've been low, I've been high, I've been in your face
I have felt both humbled and proud, and at times I was confrontational.
I've been under the microscope, I've been dissected
I have been scrutinized and analyzed, and my flaws were exposed.
I've been viewed as the villain, the hero, the king elected
Others have seen me as a bad guy, a good guy, or a leader chosen by the people.
I've plundered, I've pillaged, ripped 'em off in the broad daylight
I have stolen and cheated, and I did it blatantly and without remorse.
I've been the blame for the problem
I have been held responsible for causing issues.
I've seen the hate, felt the hate, almost made the choice to embrace hate
I have experienced hatred from others, and at times, I was tempted to respond with hatred as well.
Now I'm at the point where the pain feels great
I have reached a stage in my life where the emotional pain is overwhelming.
Where I can't go on, where I can't escape
I feel trapped and unable to move forward.
It's like a thousand knives are piercing my ribcage
I am suffering intense emotional trauma that is physically painful.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I tried to smile but it's all wore thin
I have put on a facade of happiness, but it is no longer effective.
I'm like a bird without feathers, a fish without fins
I feel incomplete and powerless, like a bird without feathers or a fish without fins.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I have reached a point of no return, where my pain is too much to bear.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are catching up to me, and I am unable to escape from them.
I'm too far gone, too far gone, too far gone
I feel like I am beyond the point of help or redemption.
All my demons are coming and I can't outrun them
My personal demons are overwhelming me, and I am unable to escape from them.
