About Hazi:
"Growing up in the small town of Kodak, Tennessee, I lived more life than any kid should. I faced numerous challenges, but these experiences only fueled my passion for music. From a young age, I found comfort and inspiration in melodies and lyrics, using music and my faith in Christ as a way to navigate through tough times. My music style itself is a product of my upbringing. Southern sound meets soulful melodies. I call it Southern Soul. Today, I wish to continue to inspire others with my music, sharing a message of hope and determination. My story is not just about the pursuit of a dream, but about the strength to rise above adversity."
