Artist History Ozz came from a group called Epitome. It consisted of Ozz, Malace, Kid Krueger, and a kid named Greg Max. After a few record deals were lost Ozz, Malace, and Kid Krueger left the group to pursue goals with other, more business minded people.

Group Members Originally from London, England, OZZ has been in the business for a long time. He originally started with a group called Epitome. They were about to sign a contract when one of the members decided to drop out of music. Needless to say, the contract was lost. (A person can actualy be afraid of success.) He left the group after that, and formed Inn-R-net Productions with his partner Malace. The owner of an entertainment company which has relocated to Orlando, (hint, listen to "Unstoppable",) created several problems between the artists which eventually led to the closing of the company. In 1999 Ozz & Malace founded RAPKUZA Entertainment. It was an organization dedicated to helping unsigned artists gain exposure. In 2002 the company was put on the shelf until future notice. A new company, "Dynamyk Entertainment," was implemented by Ozz & Malace. Ozz decided to focus more on his music, and pursue a recording contract. Ozz produces much of his own material, and designs his own CD/Album labels. Malace manages the direction of Ozz's career, and Dynamyk Entertainment. He has performed on many venues including the "How Can I Be Down Conference", the "Sistrunk Festival", and every year on Thanksgiving Night, Dynamyk Entertainment sponsers the "Unsigned Artist Showcase" at the Broward County Fair which features the stable of artists. The main focus for OZZ is to receive a recording contract, and reach the billions of potential fans world wide. His music can be found on Amazon.com, Napster, and many other sites all over the internet. He is doing very well in the category of "West Coast" on Amazon.com as well as being in the top 10 in many other rap categories. On http://mpulse.com Ozz has had songs in the top ten in the hip hop category since joining the site. "The future will bring many changes, and OZZ will be there to guide them!"
