Struggling with deep internal stress, he found inspiration in Eminem after his first encounter with Hip-Hop when he heard the song Purple Pills. Mugzy felt that he could strongly relate to the lyrics in Eminem's songs & began to change his image to be a true representative of the Hip-Hop Culture.

As he developed his style and studied Hip-Hop, he found further inspiration from the legends: 2 Pac, Biggie, 50 Cent, DMX, & searched further into the roots of Hip-Hop to re-discover artists like Public Enemy, NWA & Nas.

Drawing inspiration from the masters of Hip-Hop & armed with the knowledge earned through years of hardship, Mugzy's rap speaks of truth. A raw truth. A truth that will resound with teenagers that have had to endure self doubt & lack of confidence.

Mugzy emerged from the shadow through Hip-Hop & found a way to express himself through his music by embracing the culture.

Based in Copacabana on the Central Coast, Mugzy will not shy away from any challenge to perform on any stage.
