Swayz is a 22 year old upcoming Zimbabwean artist who is based in Ottawa, Canada and has just released his first music video titled Believe Yourself.
Swayz whose real name is Cyril Gwaze was born and raised in Zimbabwe. At age 15 he began writing music and recorded his first song by 16. After picking up a buzz in high school, he decided to take music more seriously and released his first mixtape by age 17.
"The more I released music was the more I got noticed", added Swayz.
"I was interviewed on the country's largest radio station and was featured in The Herald newspaper, the country's go to newspaper", said Swayz.
"At age 19, I then moved to Ottawa, Canada to pursue my studies. I recorded my first song titled "Swavy" a few months after settling in which was then featured on Hot New Hip Hop as a heat seeker", he said.
"I then took a break from music to focus on college and in April 2015, I met and freestyled for Big Sean. He told me that he liked my flow and gave me his email address" Swayz said.
According to Swayz, this motivated him to get back to music but he still had to graduate first.
"Right after I graduated earlier this year, I wrote a song titled "Believe Yourself" and saved up money to record it at Audio Valleyin Ottawa, the same studio J Cole recorded part of his 2014 Forest Hills Drive Album", added Swayz.
Believe Yourself was released on the 21st of October 2016 along with his first music video and is getting nothing but positive reviews from the media in Canada.
