"Born and raised in Chicago, the Native American mc was inspired by golden era hip hop and the gritty underground scene in Chicago that reflected the era. Developing his craft in the same scene that inspired him has shaped him into the MC that we see before us today.Coming out of the seven Oddities camp, Pozlyrix already has a heavy amount of features under his belt. Collaboration with Scenic Roots and A Walk in the Park productions formed the group “Bottom Dollar Scholars” that gave Poz his first taste of being an MC beyond the studio releasing a video and traveling around the city of Chicago and east coast to hit the stage. 40 oz Kings, another group out of Seven Oddities that Pozlyrix was a part of helped expand his music career. In 2011 the group entered “Toast of the coast”, a competition that would give the winner a performance slot at the North Coast Music festival in Chicago. After the first step which consisted of a few days of online voting they moved onto to a battle of the bands type of competition. After showing they were better than 100 other performers, the 40 oz. Kings came out on top and were in the 2011 North Coast festival lineup among acts like Common, Rjd2, Wiz Khalifa and David Guetta."
