There’s a tension in Kaziboii’s music that most artists spend years trying to figure out. How do you make something hit hard enough for the club while still carrying real weight? How do you blend the aggressive punch of drill with the kind of soul that actually means something? For the Nigerian artist now based in the UK, that balance isn’t something he’s chasing. It’s just how he hears music.

Raised between Lagos and Port Harcourt with a mother who kept music constantly playing, Kaziboii didn’t just grow up around sound. He studied it. As a kid, he bought Michael Jackson lyric sheets just to understand how songs worked. That early obsession turned into high school bands, homemade beats, and eventually his first studio track “Carolina” in 2018. That session confirmed what he already knew.

By 2020, he was performing at beer carnivals when Mc Concept (aka Oga Boss) saw him and started booking more shows. He went by Kazola back then, but switched to Kaziboii in 2021, the same year he moved to the UK to study Music Production and Performance at the University of Chester. He wanted to understand the technical side of what he’d been doing instinctively for years.

His sound pulls from Wizkid’s melodies, Timaya’s street energy, and Burna Boy’s fusion approach, but what comes out is distinctly his. Afrobeats meets Afro Drill meets Afro Hip-Hop in a way that refuses to pick a lane. His seven-track EP “BODY TO BODY” dropped on August 19, 2025, running just under 20 minutes with standout tracks “Jemimah” and “Wetin Day Do Me.” The project featured Duncan Mighty and Fiokee, and it showed exactly what happens when you stop treating genres like borders.

Right now he’s working on “Too Late” featuring Qx The Great and “Sideways” featuring Faceless, both international collaborations that continue his approach of turning real experiences into tracks that work on the dance floor without losing their emotional core. For Kaziboii, the goal has always been simple: make people feel something while they move.

That’s the thing about blending drill’s intensity with genuine soul. It only works if both sides are real. Kaziboii isn’t softening the edges or adding emotion as an afterthought. He’s proving that energy and feeling don’t cancel each other out. They make each other stronger.

LBE Scar just released two EPs in the same week, handled all the engineering and production himself, and he’s set to open for Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on November 29 at Cleveland’s Agora Theater. For the Canton, Ohio artist born Skyler Lewis, those three letters in his name carry weight. Loyalty Before Everything isn’t a tagline. It’s the code he lives by, and it’s what’s pushed him this far.

Fresh off releasing “The Chronicles of Scar, Vol. 1” and “The Chronicles of Scar, Vol. 2,” the 29-year-old father of two sat down to talk about what’s driving him, the upcoming Bone Thugs show, and why he refuses to take handouts.

What does LBE stand for, and why does it matter so much to you?

LBE stands for Loyalty Before Everything. This whole process is personal. It ain’t got nothing to do with music anymore. It’s about staying true to the people who’ve been real with me and cutting off anyone who wasn’t.

You dropped two EPs in the same week. What was the inspiration behind that?

My kids. That’s it. Plain and simple. My daughter Zalaya and my son Junior are the reason I keep going strong. That’s why I gave the world these projects. I wanted y’all to feel me in these songs, like really feel me, without any visuals even needed. I just wanted to paint a picture inside the mind of my audience and fans, and release something that everyone can relate to. My past traumas are what molded me into who I am today. After I did my performance in Cleveland, Ohio, I knew this is what I was destined to be. I’m here to stay. I’m here to make music and give it to the world.

Let’s talk about “Karma” & “Choose You” from Vol. 1. What’s these tracks about?

“Karma” about betrayal and learning who’s really loyal. I tried to uplift people, invest my time and energy, and got burned. The song’s about cutting ties with people who switched up and realizing I had to build everything on my own. I wrote “Choose You” on my 29th birthday back in May after someone I thought was loyal betrayed me. I had to force myself to finish that song. I took that inner pain and turned it into motivation. We can respect the truth, but we can’t respect a liar.

You’ve got some major shows coming up. What’s happening?

In the upcoming weeks, we’ll be in New York doing interviews and performing our set with YBL SINATRA. Then at the end of the month, we’ll be back in Cleveland, Ohio again, opening up for all five members of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony (tickets here). I just want to give a special shoutout to my brother SINATRA for staying loyal, plugging me in, and making all this happen.

How’d you connect with YBL SINATRA?

We grew up around the corner from each other when I lived in Cleveland. His real name is Leon McCane aka Young Bone Luxurii Sinatra, and he’s Bizzy Bone’s son. The connection runs deep. These upcoming shows we’ve got together are gonna be huge.

What’s next after these shows?

My tour begins in February 2026. All the dates are dropping on New Year’s Day. I’m also working on a new project with SINATRA and my third EP. Dee Dee Vision’s gonna be capturing everything. He’s a goat with the camera, and he’s gonna be doing a couple visuals for me soon.

Right now, LBE Scar’s focused on proving that building from the ground up, with no handouts, is the only way that matters. The message is simple: stay loyal, stay consistent, and the rest will follow.

There’s a particular kind of power that comes from staying quiet in an industry built on noise. Camden Harris figured that out early. The 25-year-old A&R consultant and entrepreneur has touched projects that collectively surpassed two billion streams, worked alongside David Guetta, Lauv, Inna, Shaboozey, and Jason Derulo, and built companies operating across 50 countries. You’ve probably never heard his name. That’s exactly how he wants it.

Based between Luxembourg, Dubai, Georgia, and Los Angeles, Camden runs a collective of nine producers and eight recording artists who create upwards of a hundred studio productions every month. These tracks get pitched to major labels and artists worldwide. Some become hits under other people’s names. That’s the ghost production game, and Camden takes it seriously. He rarely speaks about the high-profile work.

“Music is about honesty,” he says. “I’m just here to make sure the right songs find the right homes.”

What’s interesting is how Camden Harris applied that same behind-the-scenes approach to his business ventures. He founded Atlas Advisory Group, a company based in Batumi, Georgia, that operates in more than 50 countries. The firm helps entrepreneurs restructure their lives internationally, handling everything from tax optimization to residency planning. It’s the kind of work that lets people build businesses without being locked into one location or tax system.

“What started as helping a few friends relocate their companies turned into a global advisory model,” Camden explains. “Atlas is about freedom, building a life that you own, not one that owns you.”

His second company, Marketime Global, handles digital marketing and brand storytelling from the U.S. The client list ranges from small restaurants to international artists. Camden describes his approach as less about loud marketing and more about creating depth. “I care about the kind of marketing that makes people feel something even years later,” he says.

But before the companies and the consulting work, there was a different story. Camden spent years battling severe depression and panic attacks that left him unable to leave his home. “There was a point where I didn’t think I would survive another week,” he admits. “But pain taught me everything success never could.”

He credits his wife and therapy with helping him rebuild. Today, he’s a father, and he’s clear about what matters. “My wife and son remind me what matters. All the business growth, all the music, it’s meaningless if you lose your peace.”

Earlier this year, Camden Harris became a Voting Member of The Recording Academy (GRAMMYs), and he accepted a position as Executive Director of Artist Development and Recording at a leading artist management school. He doesn’t frame these roles as achievements. “They’re about responsibility,” he says. “Shaping what excellence means for a new generation of creatives.”

Camden keeps a tight circle. Three real friends, he says. Everyone else is business or energy passing through. He laughs when people call him mysterious. “I’m not mysterious,” he says. “I just protect my peace. That’s my luxury.”

Camden Harris built something different. He learned that the strongest foundation isn’t built in the spotlight. It’s built in silence, brick by brick, with people who matter and work that lasts. From the boy who couldn’t leave his room to the man steering companies across continents, he proved that you don’t need to be loud to leave a mark. You just need to know what’s worth protecting.
