“I learn something new everyday , I get better & more creative every time I write . I try to come up with different ideas that all types people can comprehend to either if it deals with the streets or just life in general & I say that because not everybody lives a sad story but then again not everybody lives a good one . To me this is way more then just music , i definitely look at “Hip Hop” as a way of life.” - City Haze
YoungMe interviewed City Haze yesterday, they discussed about alot of stuff. Propz to my man YoungMe for initiating this (dope)interview, and thanks to City Haze for takin’ the time to do it.
Walk witt us…
1. So many people may not have heard your talent…Tell us, who is “City Haze” as an artist?
Being only 19 and with so much time to develop i always give my listeners my full effort when it comes to recording good music . As an artist on a heavy come up i always remind myself to always stay humbled & focused . I grind 24/7 thats another reason why people respect what i do . I dont work with any PR agencies , Management companies or anything . So until i can find someone that can do more than what i can do on my own , i get everything done on my own with nothing but self intelligence .
2. How would your describe your sound?
Definitely that ill New York sound! To all of my tracks i bring great delivery & real lyricism and thats something only real Hip Hop listeners are going to support 100% without second guessing my talent.
3. Where did CIty Haze start out, and where is he now?
{Laughs} City Haze started out in his room trying to mix with Cool Edit Pro!….but yea man as time passed i started really investing in myself , damn well near every dollar i made went to building a home studio & as many can see it definitely paid off . I started recording in August of 2007 and by the time i had everything i needed it was mid December , So by January 2008 to now i’ve accumulated a massive amount of site features & some magazine features as well . Also City Haze is an top Nominee for the Online Hip Hop Awards (King Of The Net) so keep casting votes {Laughs}.
4. Besides Myspace, where can we catch the latest on City Haze?
Besides myspace you can catch the latest news on City Haze on Google {Laughs} , Im all over the internet so it definitely shouldnt be a problem to look me up and im constantly featured on sites & blogs on a regular basis.
5. For your fans, where can we see City Haze?

6. What upcoming projects can we expect from City Haze?
Right now Im finishing up my 1st project which is titled “City Lane” and that should be out sometime this year . Im really taking my time with this project with it being my first release and from what i have so far thats done and recorded , its definitely a great come out cd! I honestly can say that most of the tracks on there have the capabilities and potential of being a single.
7. What put you on the map, when did you first realize you made it?
Aside from my grind ethic…Fans Fans Fans! They deserve all of the credit for putting me on the map because without them an artist cannot progress & suceed in music . I realized i made it after i kept getting major feedback from single after single so its definitely all love and respect . .
8. What artists have you worked with, and can expect to see you with in the future?
I’ve worked with mostly hot producers whos on a heavy come up as myself , as far as artists expect to see nothing but hot collabs in 09.
