We recently connected with Bizee and have shared our conversation below.

Bizee, appreciate you joining us today. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?

For me, taking risks has always meant believing in myself before anyone else did. One of the biggest risks I’ve taken was trusting my vision and committing fully to my passions—despite having no guarantee of success. For years, I kept creating without knowing if people would connect with my work. It wasn’t just about financial gain; it was and continues to be a personal journey that involves time, effort, and consistency as I invest in learning and evolving as an artist and a person.

Mick Jenkins said in his song Mop, “I’m just now stepping into what I feel is a full agency over my creativity, my artistry, my business, and even myself as a man. That kind of growth takes time. It’s a journey, and trying to rush that doesn’t get you anywhere except where you don’t want to be.” I feel the same way about my life today. Over time, I’ve reached this point where everything is starting to click—but getting here required pushing forward without external validation, taking risks, and embracing failure as part of the journey. If you don’t believe in yourself first, you can’t expect others to. Taking that leap, putting in the work, and trusting the process is the ultimate risk—but it holds the potential for the greatest reward.

Bizee, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I’m a New York native now based in Washington, DC, and creating has been at the core of my life for years now. My journey started with a simple moment—opening GarageBand with friends and creating something from nothing. That raw energy sparked my passion for music, and it’s been fueling me ever since.

For me, music and creating is more than a lifestyle—it’s storytelling, connection, and a way to inspire others. My experiences, combined with the love, discipline, and honesty I bring to everything I do, set me apart. Music isn’t just an art form; it’s a responsibility—to be real, to evoke emotion, and to create something meaningful.

At the end of the day, I want people to not just hear or see my work but experience it. I want them to see the passion behind it and be inspired to pursue what they truly love. If my art can move someone to be honest with themselves, dream bigger, or take that first step toward their own passion, then it’s all worth it.

What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?

The most rewarding part of being a creative is hearing how my work resonates with others. I might have a specific idea in mind when creating, but the beauty of art is how people interpret it through their own experiences—sometimes in ways I never expected. It’s a reminder that while we all experience life differently, we can still connect through shared emotions. That sense of connection is what makes it all so fulfilling.

Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?

I had to unlearn that perfection doesn’t exist. So many people hesitate to share their work, waiting for it to be ‘just right’ or for the ‘perfect moment,’ but that moment never comes. I spent months tweaking tiny details in my work that didn’t even define the art itself. Over time, I realized that imperfections are what makes things unique. It’s not about getting everything perfect—it’s about letting go and doing your best with what you have in the moment. You have to see yourself as high as you can possibly see yourself, and trust that you’ll get there with time. Growth is a part of art, and art often reflects growth.
