A Devin the Dude for the Tech N9ne generation, La'Reonte Wright better known as Dizzy Wright released his first mixtape in 2010. Born in Flint, MI but raised in Las Vegas by a mother who worked in the music business, Dizzy got a first-hand look at life as a major-label artist which inspired his independent ambitions. After a series of mixtapes that highlighted his smooth, Bone Thugs-influenced flow, Dizzy linked up with Hopsin's Funk Volume imprint in 2012 to release his debut album SmokeOut Conversation and The First Agreement EP. In 2013, Dizzy would release a street-level mixtape called The Golden Age which found its way on the Billboard charts when it was officially released later that year, as well as a spot in XXL Magazine's coveted Freshman Class of 2013.
