Following a decade-plus earmarked by nearly 1 billion streams, tastemaker praise, and sold out tours, Skizzy Mars comes full circle. Absorbing the ups and downs of a wild ride, the New York-born rapper, producer, and performer has leveled up to the point where he can be the artist he always intended to be. The bars are still there. The beat curation is on point yet again. The subject matter is just as real as it was on day one. Over the years, Skizzy has quietly carved out a corner of his own in the culture. He attracted an audience with seminal releases such as Phases [2013] and Pace [2014] before breaking through with The Red Balloon Project [2015]. It cracked the Top 5 of the Billboard Top Rap Albums Chart and housed “Do You There” [feat. Marc E. Bassy] and “Time” [feat. G-Eazy & Olivver the Kid]—which posted up 48 million Spotify streams and counting. On its heels, Alone Together [2016] spawned “Girl On A Train,” reeling in 43 million Spotify streams. He maintained this momentum with Free Skizzy Mars [2019] and Fun & Problems [2021]. Currently working closely with Public Library Commute, he reframed his signature sound, infusing alternative pop elements into songs like “Rendezvous” off his new project, releasing in 2025.
