about
On the title track from his latest release Cold War, muzeONE proclaims “rising in my roots, growing as the soil lifts up / dust clears, new muze standin’ with his fists up”. This sentiment of a victorious rebirth is an idea that is now prevalent in the content and psyche of an emcee closing in on two decades worth of heartfelt hip hop. With past releases as a part of the underground crew Redeemed Thought along with a couple of independently released solo EPs under his belt, muzeONE is now solidifying himself as a respected veteran emcee with the release of his first proper full length Cold War, an album that bleeds with raw talent and a renewed sense of hope. Growing up in San Diego, muzeONE was drawn to his father’s love of funk, soul, and R&B music, which eventually lit a creative fire in his belly. Before long, a young muze found himself infatuated with the sample-laden style of hip hop in the early ‘90s and began writing his own rhymes. Over the years, muzeONE has used his time and talent wisely, cultivating his own sound while pushing himself as an artist, and although he’s stayed true to his own unique style, it’s clear he’s come a long way. “I think my style has stayed pretty much within the same vein it always has. However, I’ve seen my talent and skill grow tremendously – a fact I directly attribute to being in close relation with other really dope artists,” says muze. “As long as your skill set is continually developing, your music will always sound fresh.”
