When you think of the people shaping today’s music industry, don’t just look at the artists in the spotlight—look at the minds behind the sound. One of those minds belongs to Thisisbiggz, a Grammy-voting, Billboard-charting music producer, engineer, entrepreneur, author, and cultural architect based between Baltimore, Maryland and Virginia’s 757 region.
He’s not just producing records. He’s building platforms, creating impact, and setting the standard for what it means to be a modern-day creative mogul.
Born Brian Cleven Booth Sr., Biggz’s story starts in Baltimore, where the spirit of the city’s church choirs, street stories, and classic East Coast hip hop laid the foundation for his sound. At 13, he moved to Virginia—a shift that changed everything.
“Virginia gave me my start,” he says. “That’s where I found my sound, my grind, and my identity as a producer.”
Now proudly representing both cities, Biggz blends the grit of Baltimore with the innovation and soul of the 757. The result is a signature sound—versatile, emotional, and deeply intentional.
What separates Biggz from your average producer is his full-service approach to music creation. Whether you need a custom beat, a full mix and master, or guidance on publishing, marketing, and artist development—Biggz is your one-stop shop.
“I don’t just send out beats. I build with artists,” he explains. “It’s about understanding the story, the message, the energy—and then delivering the sound that brings all of that to life.”
This approach has earned him work with G Herbo, EarthGang, Moneybagg Yo, and more. His role as executive producer on the collaborative Norfolk project showcases his ability to guide entire bodies of work from concept to completion.
Add to that over 100 production and engineering credits, and a growing catalog that fuses melodic trap, Afrobeat, soulful samples, and cinematic textures, and it’s easy to see why XXL named him one of their “Top 3 Producers to Watch.”
Biggz’s work has earned him widespread recognition: a Billboard plaque for EarthGang, a place as a Grammy voting member, and consistent buzz in underground and mainstream circles alike. Yet, despite the accolades, Biggz stays grounded in service. “It’s about creating quality, helping people grow, and giving the message meaning.”
In 2024, he launched the Cleven Harmony Foundation, a nonprofit focused on using music as a tool for healing, education, and opportunity. The foundation provides music therapy workshops, mentorship in audio engineering, and creative outlets for underserved youth.
“Music gave me peace, purpose, and direction,” Biggz says. “Now I want to give that back.”
That same mission lives in his debut children’s book, The Art of Calm, published in 2025 and available on Amazon. The book, designed especially for young Black boys, teaches mindfulness, emotional awareness, and the power of staying grounded. “Calm isn’t weakness. It’s strength,” he says.
Biggz’s vision extends beyond music into lifestyle branding, too. Under the Blockadee label, he’s launched a suite of cannabis-related products designed with culture in mind: Bacarrat Biggz (his signature weed strain), Blockadee Reserve (a boutique flower collection), and Blockadee Papers (organic rolling papers). Every product reflects his brand: authentic, premium, and built for community.
He also runs a monthly mentorship program for up-and-coming engineers. For $400/month, mentees receive hands-on training in recording, mixing, mastering, and studio session management. It’s part bootcamp, part real-world experience, and 100% focused on results.
With everything he touches—whether it’s beats, books, businesses, or nonprofits—Thisisbiggz is designing a blueprint for what creative entrepreneurship looks like in 2025 and beyond. He doesn’t just want to be heard. He wants to build, empower, and elevate.
“I’m not chasing clout. I’m building something real. And I want to help others do the same.”
