The music scene thrives on innovation - and few embody that better than RTZD, a rising artist whose sound is as dynamic as his story. Growing up surrounded by music, RTZD developed a deep relationship with rhythm and storytelling. “Over the years, my taste in music evolved,” he explains. “I started finding all these different styles of Rap and Hip-Hop, and I wanted to create something of my own.”
Five years into his career, RTZD has built a sound that feels personal, intentional, and forward-thinking. Citing Pharrell Williams as one of his main inspirations, he’s learned to view music not just as entertainment, but as a form of art - a medium for connection. “Pharrell’s style was different to the ear,” RTZD says. “That’s the kind of energy I want to bring into my own music.”
His creative discipline is a core part of what keeps him evolving. “I don’t focus on what others are doing only on my craft,” he says. That relentless self-focus has allowed him to refine his sound into something unmistakably unique.
The latest example is his new single, “Risen In The Water,” a track that blends soulful production with thought-provoking lyricism. Fans have called it one of his most powerful releases yet — a song that symbolizes growth, struggle, and rebirth. It’s the kind of music that connects on a deeper level.
And that’s just the beginning. RTZD’s forthcoming album, “Paradise Lost,” promises to take listeners on a journey through his evolution as both an artist and a storyteller. “This will be my biggest project yet,” he says. “It’s personal, it’s real, and it’s something I’ve been building toward for years.”
Though he hasn’t yet collaborated with major names, RTZD is already surrounded by a community of artists pushing toward greatness. “I’m working with artists that I know will be major figures in this world,” he says confidently.
Every step of RTZD’s path has been intentional - from his early studio sessions to his upcoming full-length project. With “Risen In The Water” making waves and “Paradise Lost” on the horizon, RTZD isn’t just part of the movement — he is the movement. The next era of Hip-Hop might just begin with him.
