In the world of music, there are many talented artists who may not get the recognition they deserve. One such artist is Young Wazi, a Nigerian-born producer and artiste who has been making waves in Toronto.
Young Wazi’s music journey started in Abuja, where he began making beats. It was in Toronto where he started putting his voice on his beats after working with other artists from the scene. The influence of these two cities can be heard in his music, which combines the best of both worlds.
