The Video:

Funk Volume rapper Dizzy Wright has just released his latest visual for the track “World Peace,” taken from his freshly dropped mixtape The Golden Age. Directed by George Orozco of On Point Films, the video follows Dizzy through Venice Beach, California, as he connects with fans of all ages, cultures and ethnicities, fitting images for a track that philosophizes on ideas of unity and positivity. Of the new mixtape, Dizzy has stated that he focused intensely on creating substantive records that recall a time when hip-hop was more socially and politically conscious, and the track and video perfectly capture this intention.

The highly-anticipated 22-track track tape with features from Wyclef, Logic, Joey Bada$$, and more, has already amassed over 100,000 downloads at HotNewHipHop, as Dizzy prepares to begin the The Golden Age Tour. The tour will be presented by HotNewHipHop and GigIt, and begins September 7th in San Diego, California with Dizzy’s label mate Hopsin as the co-headliner. Funk Volume’s DJ Hoppa, as well as opening act Emilio Rojas will also join the tour, and Futuristic and Marcus Moody will perform on select dates.

Dizzy Wright Background:

Not many 21-year old rappers can say that they’ve been rapping for over a decade. Las Vegas, Nevada, Rapper Dizzy Wright began rapping at just 8 years old, in the group “DaFuture” with his brother and very close friend; his mother wrote his raps at the time. Dizzy broke through when he was discovered at the Sheikh Music “Rip the Mic” competition in 2010 and signed onto Funk Volume a few months later. In April 2012, Dizzy released his first Funk Volume album, SmokeOut Conversations, peaking at #2 on the iTunes Hip-Hop charts. He followed it up with a free mixtape, Free SmokeOut Conversations, which has been downloaded over 200,000 times, and helped propel Dizzy to his own national 30-city tour. In December 2012, Dizzy went on to release the first of four EPs, The First Agreement, which reached as high as #2 on the iTunes Hip-Hop chart. In March of 2013, Dizzy gathered enough votes to be selected as the “People’s Choice” member of the XXL Freshman Class of 2013. Dizzy is showing no signs of slowing down, preparing a new mixtape The Golden Age, which will be released on August 19th, as well as The Golden Age Tour, which will kick off September 7th in San Diego, California.
