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.

Read More"Fuzzy" started out as a rock 'n roll, sun's out, windows down, volume's up, and you don't care where you're headed kind of beat from Brandon Burr. Brandon passed the beat along to Spencer Riley Alfonso where this light hearted rock instrumental took on an additional layer with the lyrics. Inspired by memoirs of soldiers, rockstars, and the death of the 1960's, "Fuzzy" paints a mirage of words conjuring pictures of the American dream juxtaposed with the dissapointing reality of life. There is no "clear-headed" revelations in lyrics or the music, just a fuzzy idea of what's it like to see a dream die in front of you.
