Sole Proprietor: Sir Tizzy
In this episode of Behind the Music, Baltimore artist Sir Tizzy sits down for a candid, unfiltered conversation about the experiences that shaped him long before his music reached an audience. He reflects on growing up in Baltimore City, learning how to write and freestyle at a young age, and developing his voice through observation, discipline, and constant practice rather than shortcuts or trends. From battling at lunch tables to studying creative writing and theater, Sir Tizzy traces how his foundation was built through patience and curiosity. The conversation explores the origin of his name, the philosophy behind Sole Proprietor, and his commitment to owning his craft, sound, and story. He speaks openly about trust, family, and the importance of working with people who truly understand your voice — including recording and engineering alongside his sister. Throughout the episode, Sir Tizzy frames music as both survival and self-expression, shaped by environment, faith, and responsibility to future generations. This episode captures an artist in a moment of healing and clarity, focused on growth rather than recognition, and grounded in the belief that authenticity and ownership are the only paths that last.
