Cousin Stizz is an American rapper from Boston, MA. His 2015 debut mixtape Suffolk County – home to the standouts “No Bells,”
“Fresh Prince” and the Drake-approved “Shoutout” with millions of listens on SoundCloud – takes a
sound trip through Stizz’s city.

Before rapping full-time, he took on the name Cousin Stizz after his childhood friend gave him the name at 12 years old. Stizz was also known as the friendly kid around the neighborhood. “You acting like everybody’s cousin,” his friends would tell him.

The rapper then switched the style up for his 2016 effort MONDA, named after Stizz’s friend Damone
Clark who passed away from cancer. He traded his trap-esque beats for soulful soundscapes that find
him determined to take advantage of life. From the hard-hitting opener “Wanted To Live” to the
money-hungry joint “Gain Green” and the resilient number “Million Things,” Stizz still reps his round the-way roots despite stepping further into the spotlight.

The sophomore ‘tape also followed Stizz signing to a major deal with RCA Records after being
courted by other labels.
