Zvy! : Unexpected Win

🔦 

Artist Spotlight: Zvy (Isaiah)

Richmond, VA | Artist Outlook Feature

Stepping into the underground scene with emotion, edge, and unstoppable versatility is Richmond’s own Zvy, pronounced “Zay.” Born Isaiah, this rising artist blends sonic emotion with raw talent, making it clear he’s not here to fit a mold—he’s here to break them all.

🎧 

What Sparked the Music?

Zvy’s passion for music wasn’t a phase—it was always there. “Music I’ve always loved for my entire life,” he says, citing a wide range of influences from Kanye West, Juice WRLD, Chief Keef, Teezo Touchdown to bands like Weezer, Green Day, and Linkin Park. Add to that the constant evolution of today’s underground scene, and Zvy’s inspiration becomes not just deep, but diverse.

🌀 

Genre-Defying Sound

When asked what genre his music falls under, Zvy keeps it real:

“I don’t know—I’ve done R&B, drill, rock… I swear I can do it all. I’ll never place myself in one genre.”

This genre-blending confidence is exactly what makes Zvy such an unpredictable and exciting artist to watch.

🗣️ 

What He Wants You to Feel

For Zvy, music is therapy—and he wants it to be that for others too.

“I want people to feel free… I want the spirits lifted when my song turns on. I want the mood of the room to change completely.”

Behind the melodies is a young man who once held it all in, now turning that emotion into soundtracks for his generation.

🚧 

Underground Challenges

Like many rising talents, exposure remains one of Zvy’s biggest hurdles.

Balancing daily life with music, staying consistent, and navigating social media are real struggles—but he credits his “small lil fanbase” for keeping him locked in and pushing forward.

💭 

Dream Collaborators

If he could work with anyone? It’s a dream list:

Juice WRLD, Bruno Mars, Michael Jackson, and Prime Trippie Redd.

An elite roster—one that matches the emotion and creativity Zvy pours into every track.

🏆 

His Song Wars Experience

Zvy’s no stranger to competition, but this round of Artist Outlook’s Song Wars hit different.

“The competition was there and I actually felt a reaction to my music… it lifted my spirits—especially with my album BST3 dropping next month. It was the push I needed.”

🔮 

What’s Next?

BST3 is on the way—and if his Song Wars showing was any indication, Zvy’s momentum is only building. With genre-blending range and authentic storytelling, his time in the underground might just be the prequel to something major.
