BIG STEEZE IS PUTTING ON FOR NIAGARA FALLS

During the summer of 2022, rapper Big Steeze released a highly anticipated 7- track project called Face Of My City. Featuring an impressive roster of rising rappers and producers ( Quisi La Flare, Go Hard Kiss, 96_ Garden$, etc.) from what we call “The Falls,” Big Steeze was front and center flexing his rhymes, larger-than-life style, and spreading an underlying message that Niagara Falls has talent. Untapped and underrated, Big Steeze hopes his ascension will shine a light on a city that not only holds one of the 7 wonders of the world but a community of fiercely talented artists paving their own way in an overlooked city. The rapper, who has had an impressive rise this year himself - opening up for artists like Dave East, Jay Critch, Benny the Butcher and touring with Conway The Machine, sat with us in October to talk about the Face Of My City project, Niagara Falls’ hip-hop scene and what the future hold for his career.
