As one half of The SPADES (SPADES In Midnight Malevolence), Ozy with his partner in rhyme, Indy has blazed a musical path that stretches from their hometown of Columbia, South Carolina to Atlanta, Georgia where they attended College. It was in Atlanta that Ozy began to blossom as a solo artist while simultaneously feeding the streets with Spades tunes. It was also in Atlanta that Ozy met up with talented producers such as Illastrate and Koda to begin molding a unique sound not only for the Spades but for himself as well. It was by Koda and Illas beat ingenuity that the foundations for Ozys high-powered tracks ALB and FireFly were laid. I make music for music lovers. I wanna take hip hop music beyond where its ever gone and replenish the edge and the soul that it had before it was a billion dollar industry, says Ozy. The numerous songs that he and his crew, The UFOs, have sprinkled throughout the Internet are a testimony to that. Between show dates and radio airplay in S.C. and ATL The Spades and Jus Cuz(Nefarious and SinSkyy) with their label MOONDOX, Ltd.(est. in 2002) maintain a growing buzz.

As an individual Ozy will conquer not only the music industry but the world of film as well. He studied film at Clark Atlanta University following a note worthy history in the drama program at Richland Northeast High school back in South Carolina. During and since college, Ozy has acted in, written, directed and composed music for several projects. Some of which can be found at video stores nationwide. Excelling in multiple arts, including music production, he can only be labeled an artist. From his first roles in grade school plays, to leading songs in the church choir, and local club performances around Columbia and Atlanta, Ozy has stayed on it. In his own words Me and my fam have starved long enough. I gotta feed generations with my raps so in my eyes I gotta blow! No question!

In any crowd, Ozy stands out like a sore thumb. Maybe its because of his laser beam focus on his goals, which was evident in the communications department at Clark Atlanta. Ozy was a 4-year member and eventually became president of 4-Reel Productions, a popular film organization at the university. Success through leadership has always been in the cards for him. Even as a 4-year old belting out his own renditions of hits by Marvin Gaye, The Jackson 5, and New Edition Ozy, or Corey Gillens as his parents named him, knew his destiny. His quote worthy lyrics give him a presence that is rare in todays beat driven market and the soul that he brings to the game is paralleled by none. After the huge success of The Spades South Carolina hit Incredible SC, Ozy prepares his yet untitled solo debut album. With several projects in the works, and the recent release of The Last Dragon mixtape hosted by DJ Aaries of the HOOD HARD Hitmakers, he will solidify himself as a music legend and further secure that his destiny will be fulfilled. www.MOONDOX.com
