Three D. Swayze:
Breaking the bank as he should, Three D. Swayze doesn't play about his bread cause this ain't Monopoly (Dinkleburg)
Instead the hip-hop artist utilizes his 9-to-5 — two steps ahead with humorously, clever out-of-pocket rhymes, similes & punchlines. "High like gas prices." (Dinkleburg). Equally important is Swayze's superlative energy. Like Chazz said in Blades of Glory: It gets the people going.
Still, Three D. Swayze pays the price for having such a great skill. Ever so often he has to weed out the fake or put ladies on tab.
To put it further, Three D. Swayze gives you his reality.
He's investing into the come-up & doesn't plan on slowing down.
A net worthy artist at just 22 years old, Three D. Swayze's moniker comes from his government name, birth order & where he puts his focus. In the words of Swayze, "I be ghost trynna get my money right." He use to create music just for the hell of it — playing the drums & guitar which transitioned into freestyling but then something in him changed. It was time for Swayze to collect his coins. "People said I was really good at it [rapping] so I decided to just go for it." he says.
Whilst moving from coast to coast, Three D. Swayze resides in Tampa, Florida for the time being. One thing he likes so far is the unity splattered in the music scene. "The way the music scene is all getting together to help break down walls is admirable. Pretty soon because of this, our sound will be mainstream."
Keeping in mind that there's always something new worth doing, Three D. Swayze's life keeps him on the early rise. He's been through the wringer but just gives it the middle finger.
Though Three D. Swayze is about his business, he doesn't potray himself as someone else. In fact he is his most authentic self when it comes to music. " Music helps me out through a lot. Sleep Walking by Mozzy has helped me alone. It's crazy how music can make you remember an exact moment and time." Swayze adds "Everything in my music just comes from a real place. If they rock with then thats that."
In the same way Three D. Swayze rocks with his track, Dinkleburg the most. "That song wasn't suppose to be sh*t." he says "I found the beat online (big shoutout to @prod.) by Brad Kins. I freestyled the hook and was like "Ay this b*tch kind of slaps!" The more I wrote to it, the more I could picture the visual. To let you in on a little secret, I have an ongoing theme in my EP that correlates to the Dinkleburg video. So I hit up Talvo (@syzygyvisualz) and he was able to bring the vision I had in mind with his own drip."
As Three D. Swayze pushes himself to make music his full-time career, he finds himself moved by his cousin Eva, an artist & photographer who takes action to do the same. "One night I was back in Chicago. She had a gig the next morning. She told me she called off work to do it & at the time I didn't make music like that so I was like "Damn you can do that?" She said yeah & told me how much she was about to make for a shoot that was only an hour or two. I was like "Oh word??" & that's what pushes me the most. She's really out here making bread off of something she loves to do."
Moving forward, Three D. Swayze plans on releasing a group project called "Outside World" ft. Fetti Suo, Frankie X & Flex Winter. Three D. Swayze also will have a solo project out called "Ghost" (& of course Dinkleburg will take the lead.)
For the time being though let's hope that Three D. Swayze collabs with Outside Gang, Pusha Preme, CBane or King AJG. According to the artist, their sound is different & unique.
If I could put in my two cents, I'd say Three D. Swayze's music is going to garner tons of attention real soon.
