The best kept secret in music
Press
Q:
Why did you choose this name?
KUZIN:
Prince of New York...was a natural thing-im younger than most of these rappers hince the Prince part of the name and with Jay retiring I feel with the right promotions I will be the next big star in New York.
Q:
Do you/will you play live?
KUZIN:
I would like to do a Kuzin Unplugged on MTV like Jay did a few years ago.
Q:
How has he internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
KUZIN:
Im all about technology...people just need to follow the rules and understand that illegally downloading music is stealing from your favorite artists...a true fan/friend would not do that.
Q:
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
KUZIN:
Yes sir! Im working with Richh Kiddz right now to secure a recording contract with a major record label however, Richh Kiddz ultimate goal is to sign a venture/p&d deal with a major distributor like Universal, Asylum, Atlantic, Interscope, TVT, Koch, etc...
Q:
Name(1)rapper that most influenced you?
KUZIN:
Jay-Z...because he effortlessly took over the game and went out on top. Even if he comes back-he's just the most prolific, consistent, and explosive lyricists to ever hold the mic. I consider myself a lyricist not a rapper. There is a big difference. Also NAS and of course B.I.G! Hard to name (1) when all (3) of them have influenced me in one way.
Q:
City to find Kuzin partying, shopping,or living?
KUZIN:
Domestically...New York of course! International...too many to list.
Q:
Anything else you wanna add?
KUZIN:
YEAH!...I GOT NEXT! The mixtape is complete and there are like 19 joints on the mixtape...Im selling the 10 originals and the other 9 are bonuses from beats you've heard like Lean Back and Who Shot ya? Email us: russdowns@richhkiddz.com for more info or to purchase the cd

THE FUTURE
Raps new boy wonder hails from Hempstead, Long Island (NY). This 21-year old lyricist has what it takes to be a major influence on pop culture. Inspired by the likes of Jay-Z, Nas, and Biggie, his quick-witted brash delivery is focused man.
Kuzin had his share of crosses to bear coming up in a single parent household and having to be the man of the house at an early age. He discovered his gift to write rhymes when he was 12yrs old and by 17, this hobby grew into his love and passion for hip-hop.
He got his first taste of fame recording songs in a friends basement. His brother went out promoting the homespun music all over the neighborhood, creating instant notoriety locally. Kuzin forged an alliance with producers Xplicit and 7th Emp and pursued his dream of becoming a top MC.
CREATING A BUZZ
Kuzin, after to speaking to Russell Simmons, put the album material on hold to drop a hot mix tape entitled I GOT NEXT!. Rapping over some of todays hottest hip hop beats such as Jay Zs Public Service Announcement, Fat Joes Lean Back, and B.I.Gs Who Shot Ya, Kuzin displays his ability to compete at a level that not many MCs are able to accomplish. His timing and delivery is very comparable to the top 5 rappers alive today.
