UK based singer songwriter and rapper DR SNIZZ has big plans not just for his personal music but also for the industry altogether. An actual doctor, he’s created a label, SNIZZ Records and a music career, alongside his medical practice. DR SNIZZ combines R&B style with rap, and Afro-pop elements, influenced by his Nigerian heritage. The result is an original sound flooded with positivity.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

DR SNIZZ travelled to many parts of the Caribbean while teaching medical students at St George’s University in Grenada, which allowed him to soak up the vivid sights and cultures of the area and inspired his musical and cinematographic style. He moved to the UK in 2015 to further his medical career, with the further result of improving his success in the music industry. He started performing in the annual event, ‘Felabration’, an afrobeat music festival, which celebrates the legendary Fela Anikulapo-kuti, as well as fashion shows and other local events.<\/p>\n
