For the past couple of years, the south has been losing respect in the music industry. Houston has been particularly persecuted for the lack of substance in hiphop. Although the south has been labeled as the haven for club rappers, a fresh and upcoming rapper is emerging on the scene. Uzoy was born July 5, 1988 in Houston, Texas. Growing up she always had ambitions for the music industry, writing her first songs in high school and performing in talent shows as a child. Further pursuing her interest in singing and rapping, she met up with friends who shared the same goals, carrying out their musical talent throughout high school.
She started the entertainment group Street Pharm shortly after her friend R.Rich left the group he was in. At the head of her group, she faced the fact that good beats weren't offered at reasonable prices for singers. Realizing that R.Rich needed beats to be able to sing on, she started producing in October of 2006. Producing off and on now for a year, Uzoy has finally started to achieve the sound she has wanted to obtain as an R&B producer. The industry has never been kind to female rappers and hasn't known many female producers, but it is showing a lot of love to this young lady.
Currently recording her mixtape, Uzoy is attending college while doing collaborations with various artists in Houston. She has been affiliated with Street Squad, LaRymes Productions, Heavyweight Productions, Karate-Man, Deuce, Boonie Mayfield and Kajmir Royale. With her east coast meets down south music, Uzoy is sure to dominate the hip hop scene in the following years.
