Bigz has built a reputation as one of the most entertaining and talented artists the UK has to offer, through his mix of witty lyrics, larger than life personality and street credibility.
Bigz first entered the music industry with his business partners Tayo 'ESQ' Badru and Olu 'Father' Olabagju, setting up their record label/production company Alliance Records. They then released Bigz debut singles 'Cor Blimey' and 'This Is How We Do' and also co-released Sway's Mercury Music Award nominated album, ?This Is My Demo'. In 2006 they intended to release Bigz debut album but due to the tragic loss of his older brother Akeem 'Banger' Oriola and both business partners mentioned above in the mere space of 12 months, Bigz took an extended hiatus from the industry. 'I needed time to deal with it, with myself and with my family, now by the grace of God your boy is back'.
During his time away he opened his own studio 'The Loft', launched his new record label 'Fly Boy Records', his entertainment company 'Flyboy Ent' and his ?Flygerian? phrase which has now turned into a brand and clothing line Flygerian Ink with his business partner and brother, Joey ZaZa.
Flygerian is my life. It's what I live by. Its more than a word, it's a lifestyle, its being confident and respecting all Nigerians who came before me. Music is just the start; I'm going become a fashion icon.
Bigz is an integral part of UK super group Eurogang, alongside S.A.S (Mega & Mayhem), Villain & Haze and has also collaborated with a wide range of talent including Sway, Keisha Buchanan (formerly of the Sugababes), Terri walker, Skinnyman, JME, Ghetto, Wretch 32, Baby Blue, Professor Green, Nigeria's Naeto C (MTV Africa Awards Winner), Eldee, Rytmus (Czech Republic's premier Hip Hop artist), Kolsavaz (Germany's premier Hip Hop Artist), Stop Roc from Poland, in which he modelled their clothing line and the Grit Boys of Houston Texas multi Platinum artist Paul Wall group/affiliates.
Bigz has performed all over Europe including Spain, Poland, Italy, Czech Republic, Germany, Sweden, Ireland and Switzerland to name a few. During Bigz career he has gained major support from a wide range of figures and media outlets including the likes of Tim Westwood, Semtex, Shortee Blitz, Masterstepz, Rwdmag, MTV Base, Worldstarhiphop.com, Channel U, Onsmash.com, Vladtv.com, Grimedaily.com, Rwd Magazine, Hiphop Connection Magazine and MTV Africa to name but a few.
