Formerly known as JRah, Dubziano has come a long way from rapping about frivolities on his debut mixtape, Red Carpet Theory to the collected and calculating artist completely transformed by the fast life in New York City. Just like others in his shoes who have been on the receiving end of the Concrete Jungle’s lessons which can either elevate you exponentially or eat you up and spit you out, Dubziano has now delivered a stream of key life lessons learnt in New York that have yielded solid projects like Love Yourself and Blue Jasmine. He’s sonically levelled up in production and songwriting with a very effortless feel to it and on his just released album, CLUES (Call Logs Under Excessive Surveillance), his evolution is as telling as his passion and raw talent.
CLUES (Call Logs Under Excessive Surveillance) tells the story of temptation, lust, lost love and a rockstar’s wildest moments. A man who is very comfortable sharing the highs and lows of living at an alarmingly frantic pace with the hunger of a rookie but the precision of a seasoned veteran, Dubziano asserts his elite status wielding metaphorical bars, a sturdy flow and even more engaging Piano dominant instrumentals as his weapons of delivery.
With gritty, menacing and emotive tracks that cling very closely to Hip Hop’s origins and press on his evolution, the New York based Nigerian Rapper sets the record straight by dubbing himself the intimidating big homie which personifies how he feels when he walks into any establishment; grand and refreshing, before dishing out more evidence to prove exactly why that is.
