Meet Naye Songz

My name is Naye Songz and I am a Hip-Hop/R&B artist and Serial Entrepreneur from Memphis, TN who is ready to set the music industry on fire with my blend of soulful style and mature vibes. Growing up, I used music as a means to escape all of the pressures of life. I was bullied in elementary school a lot and I struggled with coming out to my family in regard to my sexuality so music was an escape for me. Music was the only I could truly be myself and express my feelings.  After noticing that I did not hear many female artists in the male-oriented hip hop played on the radio, I became infatuated with the likes of Anita Baker, Queen Latifah, Gangsta Boo, Lil Chat, and Missy Elliot, among others. I also remember my mom used to walk around the house singing Whitney Houston and I would just sit there and listen like wow, I would to be able to sing like that one day. From there, I wrote my first song when I was 13 years old entitled Ms. Sally Walker. The song was based on a game my cousins and I played during that time. I recorded the song using my cassette tape player and my karaoke machine. I played the song for my parents and siblings, and from that moment on music became a bigger part of my life.  Since then, music has been ranked on various music charts and I also started a business outside of music. I own a Lifestyle Clothing Brand called Sizzle Season (better known as Sizzle Szn), a TV/Film Production Company, as well as several other companies. The purpose of Sizzle Szn is to motivate individuals no matter where they are on their journey. We encourage people to always “Start Strong. Stay Strong. Finish Strong. I also recently started a podcast show entitled Elevation Talks. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire individuals that are struggling to reach either personal or career goals. Throughout each video, I drop key gems that will propel individuals to their next level.  As Serial Entrepreneur, in 5 years I see myself still elevating, inspiring people, and continuing to expand the global reach of my brands and investments. I would love to continue to inspire the world in many different ways and secure all the many blessings that come with that. The music I create is completely timeless, a substance that most music today lacks. In my opinion, many artists today spend countless studio hours creating a record that won’t be irrelevant in 6 months or a year. If artists spent more time creating music with more value, they wouldn’t have to constantly release new music and projects to stay relevant. Recently, I had a show and I only performed two songs. The records that I selected are like three or four years old and the crowd was rocking to my music as if it was a newly released single. I will say that Bruno Mars is a great example of creating timeless music and evolving. He isn’t afraid to switch up his music style or image. I want to be remembered for inspiring people through my music, brands, videos, and elevation talks. Although, I am not currently releasing any new music. I am working on a few of my own TV shows and films. I might do a few more shows too. Follow me @naye_songz on all social media platforms to learn more about me.
