Biography

Boaz got his start in the battle rap scene of Pittsburgh. He is lucky to make it out alive, let alone gain as much respect as a rapper as he has on the streets of Pittsburgh. According to Boaz himself, “Damn near everybody I did music with is in the penitentiary or dead,” he says. “Pittsburgh is one of those places where, if you can make it here, if you can be respected in these streets—you can do it anywhere. It’s that cutthroat.” He released his debut album Intuition in October 2014, before following it up with a mixtape, The Burghprint. He has also toured on the Under the Influence of Music Tour with Wiz Khalifa, Mac Miller, and Kendrick Lamar, followed by The Smoker’s Club Tour in 2013. With his new project, Hope Dealer, out now, Boaz shares, "My intention is to spark the interest in the minds of those who may have no interest at all in anything other than the environmental factors that enforce the one tract mind theory. This Hope Dealer project is based upon me challenging my thinking process first. How to keep the messages socially relevant and more generally spoken, so our experiences can be better understood cross culturally and more helpful as opposed to threatening to society.”
