Hazl and T-Millzy are transporting you back to the 90s with a fresh twist. Pioneering a new wave of UK R&B Rap, their latest single ‘Plus 1’ brings about a nostalgic revival of classic sounds. This co-produced track features a captivating club bounce, Hazl’s smooth, wavy flows, and T’s cheeky wordplay, delivering the ultimate summer vibes. Picture it: golden hour, a drink in hand, and you’re buzzing with excitement for the night ahead.
Before dropping their debut hit, ‘Mad 1’ (which garnered over 40k streams), the dynamic duo discovered their potential in an unexpected moment. T-Millzy randomly airdropped an early version of the instrumental to Hazl during a university lecture. The silent auditorium was soon filled with the sounds of Hazl’s excitement as he experienced a moment of pure euphoria through his noise-cancelling Beats headphones. The question lingered: Who was this T-Millzy, and where did he come from?
Hailing from Southampton, T-Millzy’s background as a grime MC and influences from icons like 50 Cent, Skepta, and AJ Tracey, blended seamlessly with Hazl’s 90s and 00s R&B roots. The West London rapper developed a distinctive style of melodic rap, drawing inspiration from his idols, including Bryson Tiller, Chris Brown, and Summer Walker. Their partnership was indeed a match made in musical heaven.
