Hip Hop Artist Steezy8100 Loves The Freedom Of Being a Solo Artist

Marquiece Harris better known to the music world as “Steezy8100” was one of the original members of Los Angeles all star group known as KioeBoyz. Recently going solo, Steezy continues to bring his word play and hype party style vines of rapping to loyal fans and followers. Having been a part of LA’s underground scene for almost a decade, he’s taking things up a notch with the release of his highly anticipated single “Hot Boy” this year. He loves the freedom of being a solo artist so we sat down to talk about why it’s easier than being in a group, what influences his music and what he plans to do when he gets out of quarantine.

What has been the biggest challenge about going solo?

I would have to say is grabbing people’s attention. A group is easier because it’s more than one person.
