As a child he grew up in a single parent household in Brooklyn NY where his mother worked very long hours leaving Brizz to himself, his imagination, and a sizable record collection ranging from Ray Charles and Nat “King” Cole to Billy Idol,and The Go Go’s but It was on the streets though that he heard and fell in love with Hip Hop, the music that would define him.

Around the age of 12 the family decided it would be best to relocate Miami FL. Over the next few years Brizz began to find himself through musical expression. He started taking part in school performances and writing music on his own after school. After high school, he dove more and more into music and song writing before finding out there was more to making records than a hot beat and a hook.

It was in 1999, during a visit to a high-end recording studio in Miami operated by two producers whom he had met through a close friend that changed his music aspirations entirely. He saw first hand a facility full of microphones, tape machines, mixing consoles, and speakers. A year later, Brizz moved to Orlando and enrolled into Full Sail University to study Recording Arts. “Robert was always technically literate” says his mom Yvonne. “As a child he used to take everything in the house apart just to see how they worked or to see if he could fix them and then put them back together.”

Upon graduating from Full Sail, Brizz went back to Miami where he reconnected with the now established production duo of “Cool and Dre” and began working immediately with them as their engineer on their ever growing workload. Before long the team created a multitude of hip-hop classics such as Ja Rule’s “New York”, Game’s “Hate it or Love it” and orchestrated works for other music heavyweights like Fat Joe, Juvenile, Mary J Blige, R Kelly, Queen Latifah, Lil Wayne and many more. In a industry where you either evolve or become extinct, Brizz has remained relevant by expanding past solely recording and focused his craft more-so into mixing where he is consistently challenging himself.
