AUTO BIO BREAKDOWN:?My name is Mazzi & I’m part of a group called S.O.U.L. (Sense Of Understanding Life’s) Purpose . I’m from Jersey City, New Jersey.

From May 2009-August 2010, I traveled to Palestine & Israel for humanitarian work. We brought medical supplies & conducted workshops, talent shows, & live performances for the youth in refugee camps. A documentary called "Peace In The Middle East" was filmed about the experience. A follow up album complimenting the documentary is also in the works. Also, we're currently working on 5 EP's (each one with a different producer: Young Guru, Sean C & LV, Evil Dee, Frank Dukes, & Harry Fraud). Each EP will be dedicated to a different charity & 100% of the sales will be donated. Social activism is the backbone of S.O.U.L. Purpose! Let’s keep the movement going for our communities, people, & children! Thank you for the support! PEACE & LOVE…
