Izzy Scal is a dynamic artist in the world of rap, blending his Italian, Swiss, and Canadian origins to create a unique style. Based in Montreal, he began his musical journey in childhood, initially drawn to the piano before diving into the world of hip-hop. His passion for this genre was fueled by the influence of iconic artists such as IAM, Fonky Family, and Nas, refining his musical sense and appreciation for complex rhythms and impactful lyrics.

In 2021, with the founding of his label Productions Artefax, he took a crucial step in taking control of his musical career. This initiative not only allowed him to self-produce and maintain artistic autonomy but also provided a platform for emerging talents such as singer-songwriter Edouard. By working closely with the artists on his label, he actively contributes to their development, whether through writing or composition.
Izzy Scal's music is distinguished by a combination of elements dear to him: lyrics that strike the mind, a cadence that captivates the listener, and melodies that linger in memory. His works reflect a harmonious blend of his influences, combining classic French rap, Italian trap, and touches of new school, to create a rich and energetic auditory experience.
