Mazzi Brave formed in 2023 as an artist project fronted by Los Angeles based Cam Carmichael. In collaboration with music producer Spencer Riley Alfonso, Carmichael began work on the debut album: Titan with Ildefonso, Inc. The roots of the project began as the two collaborators started writing and recording together. Alfonso and Carmichael fused rap, hip-hop, and rock. Inspired by bands like Run the Jewels, Rage Against the Machine, and Nine Inch Nails, Mazzi Brave’s kinetic energy rallies bombastic lyrics over pounding drums, howling guitars, and prominent bass lines.
