The Announcement:

Las Vegas’ finest rapper Dizzy Wright has a reputation as a stoner, but his work ethic is remarkable and unquestionable. Fresh off a tour opening for Logic, Dizzy Wright announces his second EP of 2016: the 702 EPreleasing…(wait for it…) 7/02. The 702 EP is a boastful, hard-hitting and often anxiety-riddled EP, with the Sin City rapper guiding listeners on a trip through the parts of his hometown that tourists don’t visit. Featuring metallic, trap-influenced production from the likes of Alex Lusting, LarryMakingAllTheHits, FreezeOnTheBeatand Louie Haze, Dizzy trades some of the “wisdom and good vibes” of his previous releases for a darker, more personal aesthetic.

The nephew of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony‘s Layzie Bone, Dizzy Wright began rapping at just 8 years old. Dizzy Wright released SmokeOut Conversations in April 2012, peaking at #2 on the iTunes Hip-Hop charts. He followed it up with a free mixtape, Free SmokeOut Conversations, which propelled Dizzy Wright to his own national 30-city tour. As the “People’s Choice” member of the XXL Freshman Class of 2013, Dizzy Wright also released his The Golden Age mixtape followed by multiple projects which received wide acclaim, including 2015’s The Growing Process which landed him HotNewHipHop‘s digital cover story. Earlier in 2016, Dizzy Wright released the Wisdom and Good Vibes EP, featuring singles such as “Work a Lil Harder”and “Plotting.“

Today, Dizzy Wright releases the neon-lit, kitchen-set video for “What’s In My Pot?,” a bass-heavy banger featuring verses from Reezy and Easy Redd. “What’s In My Pot?” finds the three rappers detailing their secrets to success over an instrumental by FreezeOnTheBeat, with Dizzy rapping, “I stay ready you can’t put me on the spot/I’m cooking come and see what’s in my pot.” The video follows last week’s release of the video for “EastSide,” in which Dizzy tours Las Vegas’ East Side on his bike and parties in his home. “East Side” is available as a gratis download when pre-ordering the whole EP. The EP is also available for pre-order on physical form atDizzy Wright’s official site.

Dizzy Wright Background:

Las Vegas, Nevada, Rapper Dizzy Wright began rapping at just 8 years old in the group “DaFuture” with his brother and very close friend; his mother wrote his raps at the time. Dizzy broke through when he was discovered at the Sheikh Music “Rip the Mic” competition in 2010 and signed onto Funk Volume a few months later. In April 2012, Dizzy released his first Funk Volume album, SmokeOut Conversations, peaking at #2 on the iTunes Hip-Hop charts which he followed up with a free mixtape, Free SmokeOut Conversations, which has been downloaded over 200,000 times, and helped propel Dizzy to his own national 30-city tour. In December 2012, Dizzy went on to release the first of four EPs, The First Agreement, which reached as high as #2 on the iTunes Hip-Hop chart. In March of 2013, Dizzy gathered enough votes to be selected as the “People’s Choice” member of the XXL Freshman Class of 2013. Also in 2013, Dizzy released The Golden Age mixtape and followed it up with The Golden Age Tour. In 2014, Dizzy released the State of Mind EP and toured the US with support from Scion AV. Following the momentum, in 2015 he hit the road in support of his sophomore album The Growing Process, which peaked at #3 on iTunes. When 2016 hit, Funk Volume disbanded. No signs of slowing down, Dizzy dropped his Wisdom and Good Vibes EP and opened for Logic’s sold out The Incredible World Tour.
