Sizzy Rocket has long been known for her DIY approach to creating her visual universe as an independent artist who relies on the strength of her originality, creativity, and authenticity to build the Sizzy Rocket world without a major label budget. Owning her sexuality as an important part of her identity, she released a Playboy-certified sex-tape music video for her 2020 single “Smells Like Sex” (a reclamation of a woman’s power in leaking her own scandalous video), which went viral on YouTube.
Sizzy Rocket challenges what it means to be a pop artist in 2023 with her DIY approach, poetic and unapologetic lyricism, and a genre-blending musicality that takes influence from punk, hip-hop, and beyond. The Los Angeles-based artist became the sneering face of 21st century rock ‘n’ roll thanks to her viral 2016 electro-pop-punk seducer, “Bestie,” an unapologetically profane paean to turning your BFF into one with benefits.
2019 saw the release of Sizzy’s sophomore album, GRRRL, clocking in at #19 on the iTunes “Top Alternative Albums” chart, followed by a self-booked, sold-out US tour with TV star chloe mk as support. 2020’s third studio album, ANARCHY (which peaked at #16 on the Alternative Album charts and Top 50 in overall genre charts) explores her own personal chaos and dives into her punk roots for an artful experience unlike anything she had released before. The accompanying ticketed livestream – ANARCHY: COME TO LIFE – brought fans and friends together into a virtual performance art experience, presented live from an abandoned theme park. The album includes the single, “Smells Like Sex,” joined by an official music video exhibited at Miami Art Week and honored by Playboy. Sizzy then tapped up-and-comers UPSAHL and Mothica for remixes of fan-favorite album tracks for 2021’s THE BITCH EP. Last year also saw a new underground covers mixtape, TOO YOUNG TO DIE, released to her ravenous cult fanbase via text message in a Dropbox link, accompanied by a tour with Troi Irons as support.
Sizzy’s corrupting influence can be heard on songs penned for artists like Blu DeTiger, Noah Cyrus, Uffie, and Bea Miller. A seasoned touring artist, Sizzy has opened as direct support for Alice Glass, Boyfriend, GIRLI, Shamir, KITTEN, Imagine Dragons, and Lauren Sanderson and performed on the Main Stage PRIDE Festivals across the US.
