Born Shunom Yusuf, Startzy has had his fair share of experience with the negative side of things that come with living in a high crime environment, yet still the aspiring artist thanks his parents for providing him with the proverbial ladder required to reach his potential.
Whilst still in secondary school, Startzy gained a strong following throughout South London, and even went on to sell over 1000 mixtapes completely independently off his own back. His first video release, ‘Up In The Club’ also received heavy support from his fans and industry members alike, clocking up over 25,000 views online and receiving playlist support from Channel AKA.
Here we have the latest release from the enterprising 19 year old – an infectiously laid back number which manages to encapsulate the brilliance of Startzy’s tongue in cheek punch lines whilst maintaining a feeling of sincerity from beginning to end. ‘Hood Love’ is just the first of many releases due from Startzy in 2011, and is sure to kick the year off in exuberant fashion for the esteemed MC, garnering support from the press, radio and fans alike.
