Who's Mc Buzzz?

MC Buzzz - originally called MC Buseta - brings an alternative perspective to the Spanish Trap, as a São-Paolo born and Barcelona-raised artist. He implements Brazilian baile funk into his own version of the Spanish Trap, utilizing his distinctive experience which has enabled him to bridge the two genres together.

Raised in El Raval, in the center of the Catalonia capital, MC Buzzz has gained strength for his music career. A few years ago, he was one of the former members of Los Sugus, which was featured and interviewed by Vice in Spain as an ‘Urbano boy band’. Not long after, MC Buzzz released his first mixtape Heart Breaker with La Vendición Records in May 2018. In the same year, MC Buzzz also became the face of Nike’s campaign for the launch of Air Max 98s.

Since then, MC Buzzz has collaborated with a range of other artists such as Florentino, a Colombian producer for a summer track and MC Bin Laden a Brazilian rapper. Their song ‘Na Fuga’ aims to share the idea of freedom and to not caring about what others think. MC Buzzz was also featuring notable albums from other artists including $kyhook’s ‘Por Dinero’ with Israel B.

In September this year, the young rapper released his latest mixtape Baile De Rua at the age of 20. Across his songs, we can see his Brazilian background with ‘Bota Bota’ and ‘Maluco’, where MC Buzzz mixes between Spanish and Portuguese. He was also joined by the Swiss rapper Di-Meh on this track. The way he succeded to go from one music genre to another is a common characteristic across MC Buzzz’s music, as something he has already done in the past with songs like ‘Novinha’ and ‘Garotinha’.

Baile De Rua offers a more extensive representation of the innovation that MC Buzzz has brought to the Spanish scene such as songs like ‘Paris’ and ‘Kodak Black’. Without any doubt, the beat is a baile funk but both lyrics and flow remain Spanish to the core. It's the same process with ‘Todos Os Dias’ and ‘Toma’ two dazzling single track.

The novelty of MC Buzzz is essentially in his ability to execute a fresh flare in the Spanish Trap music that hasn’t been attempted before.
