“Got it on my own like Oprah’s network / Now I’m just trying to make Oprah’s net worth,” Pizzle raps on his latest mixtape, Insomnia 2, which DJBooth.net debuted last month. Yes, last month, meaning I’m a little bit late to this one, but perhaps that’s just as well, since Insomnia 2 is solidly warm-weather, windows-down music—all expensive cars, popped champagne and upward mobility. Striking an assured but never-pandering balance between the clubs, the streets and Top 40, the tape reaffirms Pizzle as one of Milwaukee’s most pop-savvy rappers, something he proved in 2011 with his locally ubiquitous Packers rip “Green and Yellow.” Pizzle has yet to replicate the radio play that track earned him, but Insomnia 2 suggests it may be just a matter of time until another single sticks.

Sacrifices have been made, rest has been scarce, and sleep virtually non-existent for Milwaukee native emcee PIZZLE.
INSOMNIA 2 is the result of those sleepless nights during which Pizzle not only dedicated everything he had to be the lone voice for INSOMNIAX all over, but also made the steps to solidifying a respected legacy of his own in the hip-hop world. - hiphopamore.com

Bio
Music is a process. A process to hone a distinct skill; a strenuous process to establish a comfortable yet prosperous lane. For 25-year old Milwaukee native emcee Pizzle, that process has already been 12 years in motion. Reciting lyrics and creating raps of his own at the early age of five, Pizzle, born Sharrod Sloans, signed his first recording deal with local company TRIO RECORDS at 12. Many years and growing pains later, Pizzle has emerged as a budding outlier amongst local talent with the potential and grassroots grown fan base to transition that success to a national level. Pizzle's ascent began when he, alongside fellow local phenom Prophetic received regional and national recognition with "Green&Yellow", a collaborative remake of Wiz Khalifa's "Black&Yellow" to rally the Green Bay Packer playoff run in 2011. Since them, he has received opportunities to open up for National recording artists Wiz Khalifa (Atlantic), Young Chris (Division-1), Rico Love (Division-1), Rockie Fresh (MMG), amongst others; Pizzle was invited to open for Wiz Khalifa at the world's largest outdoor music festival: Summerfest (2011). Dubbed an instant classic by the city's tastemakers, he relied heavily on social media sites and the blogosphere boom to spread his noteriety outside of his homebase. It proved to be a successful strategy, when a promotional visual to the freestyle "Snapback Music" caught the attention of Grammy Award winning songwriter and Division-1 label owner Rico Love. Impressed with Pizzle's poise, talent, and charisma, Rico flew Pizzle out to Miami to record and what you would call the courting process from a major label. Shortly after, INSOMNIA was released in attempt to capitalize on the new experience and relationship with an industry heavyweight. Now, after signing on to OSAT MUSIC for representation, the stage is set for Pizzle to solidify himself as the true beacon of Milwaukee and claim the national recognition that he's been striving so diligently for over half of his life. Equipped with a 'bigger than my environment' mentality and an undeniable work ethnic, Pizzle is ready to claim his stake amongst Hip-Hop's elite.
