He started producing music back in 2009 with two of his friends, Kenny Hardaway and Sammie Notez. After graduating, he met another like artist by the name of Relo. In 2015, Snoozegod met another artist named Blackbear. Ever since then they have been really good friends.
“Nothing really drew me to it,” Snooze said when asked about what drew him to the music industry. “I just had a camera in my hands and was able to be around so much I just started songwriting after we got off tour”.
Snoozegod continued diving into the music scene in 2016 when he and Relo formed a group called Surfclub. With their hit song being released, Snapchat.
His first co-written song was Paragraphs by Blackbear. “I Miss the Old You, was the best song I made with Bear, personally my favorite too and not because my name is in it” said Snooze when asked about his most favorite song that he has made.
Aside from touring with Bear and producing music, Snooze can also DJ.
