Rizla

Rizla started DJing as a hobby four years ago after b-boying for ten. Born and raised in Vancouver, BC, Rizla’s inspiration for music was rooted in West Coast culture. Rocking parties as a promoter on the east coast introduced Rizla to local hip hop heads (promoters, DJs, Beatboxers, MCs) and solidified his appreciation for the love of the culture. Rizla recently returned from living in Los Angeles after four years. During this time, he mastered several DJ skills, and became deeply rooted in urban fashion, hip hop, and cannabis culture. Rizla currently resides in Vancouver, BC.
