Alizzz's Musical Journey
Alizzz started his music career in 2012. His first song, "Neon Lights," was released by a UK music label. Soon after, he signed with Diplo's label, Mad Decent, and began touring around the world. In 2018, he was a main performer at the big Sónar music festival.
In 2020, Alizzz began a new part of his career. He started singing his own songs, not just producing for others. He has released songs with famous Spanish singers like Amaia (singer) and his long-time music partner, C. Tangana. His first album as a singer, "Tiene que haber algo más," was released in 2021.
Working with Other Artists
Alizzz is well-known for his collaborations with other musicians. His first big production work was in 2016 with C. Tangana and Rosalia. They worked together on songs like "Antes de Morirme." He continued to work closely with C. Tangana, producing his first album, ÍDOLO, in 2017.
One of the songs Alizzz produced for C. Tangana, "Mala Mujer," became very popular and earned triple platinum status in Spain. Another song, "Tú Me Dejaste De Querer," was the first Spanish song to get a Gold Certification in its very first week! In 2021, Alizzz also produced C. Tangana's second album, El Madrileño. This album was the most streamed album in Spain and worldwide on Spotify when it came out.
Whoa! Music Label
In January 2019, Alizzz started his own record label called Whoa! Music. He created it with Warner Records Spain. The idea behind Whoa!

Some artists signed to his label include Paula Cendejas, Coral Casino, and Robie, as well as Alizzz himself.
