So for the release of his new album \u003cem>Beyond Bulletproof\u003c/em>—which dropped May 1 on EMPIRE—the beloved Sacramento rapper opted against streaming giants Spotify and Apple Music to host the record’s debut. Instead, he premiered it on JPay—an electronic communications service for incarcerated people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I got a lot of people in there, man, a lot of people counting on me,” says Mozzy, whose real name is Timothy Patterson. “A lot of people that shared this dream with me… and I feel like they’re supposed to be right here.

The measure is meant to protect the safety of incarcerated people and staff, but in action it looks a lot like the way facilities respond to riots.

So for the release of his new album \u003cem>Beyond Bulletproof\u003c/em>—which dropped May 1 on EMPIRE—the beloved Sacramento rapper opted against streaming giants Spotify and Apple Music to host the record’s debut. Instead, he premiered it on JPay—an electronic communications service for incarcerated people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I got a lot of people in there, man, a lot of people counting on me,” says Mozzy, whose real name is Timothy Patterson. “A lot of people that shared this dream with me… and I feel like they’re supposed to be right here. We supposed to be sharing this experience.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Beyond Bulletproof\u003c/em> is a “self-help book for the trenches,” Mozzy says.

But it never seems that way at the Bay Area Record Fest, an annual gathering of local independent labels that reliably reminds us of the music community’s breadth. It’s an opportunity to buy things and meet the people often cloistered in recording studios and the like. It’s also a show, this year with a strong local lineup: performance artist Tyler Holmes, pop punk bandleader Kevin Nichols, garage standbys Sonny & the Sunsets, and the rapper Tia Nomore. All of them are affiliated with participating local labels including Ratskin, Text Me and Rocks in Your Head. Earlier installments were in San Francisco, but this year the Bay Area Record Fest is at 7th West in Oakland on Saturday, Nov. 23.

The rest of the festival includes some great films too, and runs Friday–Sunday, Nov. 22-24, at the Vogue Theater in San Francisco. \u003ca href=\"https://iicsanfrancisco.esteri.it/iic_sanfrancisco/en/gli_eventi/calendario/2019/11/cinema-italian-style-2019.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Record Fest\u003c/strong>: It’s often said the Bay Area lacks music industry infrastructure, hence all of the artists moving to Los Angeles. But it never seems that way at the Bay Area Record Fest, an annual gathering of local independent labels that reliably reminds us of the music community’s breadth. It’s an opportunity to buy things and meet the people often cloistered in recording studios and the like. It’s also a show, this year with a strong local lineup: performance artist Tyler Holmes, pop punk bandleader Kevin Nichols, garage standbys Sonny & the Sunsets, and the rapper Tia Nomore. All of them are affiliated with participating local labels including Ratskin, Text Me and Rocks in Your Head. Earlier installments were in San Francisco, but this year the Bay Area Record Fest is at 7th West in Oakland on Saturday, Nov. 23. It’s free and doors open at noon. \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/events/679625295781036/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Slayer\u003c/strong>: We know that next week is Thanksgiving, and it can be a rough time if you don’t get along with your family.

They’ve also been threatening to call it a day, so see ‘em while you can, and bring your estranged siblings.

Amid a whirlwind press tour, Mozzy recently made time to go back to Sacramento (he currently lives in Los Angeles). He threw a charity event at a local park where he gave away backpacks, school supplies, haircut vouchers and $7,000 in cash to his old neighbors and friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Provide for your people—I’m just looking out for mine,” says Mozzy, whose real name is Tim Patterson. “I’m the ‘landlord’ of this region, so I’m responsible. I don’t want no cookie, I don’t want no applause from nobody. No matter what I’m doing in life, if I have the means to look out for ’em, that’s what I’ma do, because these are the same people who was rooting for me when it was ugly, when it was spunky, when I only had seven listeners and 10 views on YouTube.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mozzy’s rise to the national stage is particularly remarkable because his subject matter, even on an album he knew would reach beyond his regional audience, is decidedly niche. He raps devotedly—militantly—about a gang lifestyle that’s far removed from anything Middle America could relate to, in a notorious neighborhood in a city whose culture is little-known to outsiders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s no sugarcoating or sanitizing on \u003cem>Gangland Landlord\u003c/em>, either. Unlike Migos or Future, who depict shoot-outs in trap houses as minor detours on the way to innumerable rap-money riches, Mozzy is deeply reflective about his street activities and time behind bars, and how both of those things have affected his mental health and development as a man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Smile now, cry later when I’m by myself / More chains for the gang than I buy myself / Misled by the blind, tryna find myself,” he raps in a gravelly voice over low piano notes and a bass-heavy knock on “Not Impressive.” Later in the verse, he breaks from his growly cadence, trailing off into a whisper with the last word of every bar, betraying the pain behind his tough exterior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/KOVLJdPRlZE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mozzy is a keen storyteller whose snapshots of life in inner-city America are as brutally realistic as they are vulnerable. “Perhaps his core talent is to convey violence in a way that feels honest, which makes his competition seem mediated, dishonest, even exploitative,” wrote \u003ca href=\"https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/40-best-rap-albums-of-2015-40015/mozzy-bladadah-26234/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em>\u003c/a>‘s David Drake when the magazine named Mozzy’s \u003cem>Bladadah\u003c/em> the 22nd best rap album of 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mozzy’s music slaps, but the gruff lyricist is a bard,” asserted \u003cem>The Atlantic\u003c/em>‘s Hannah Giorgis in her \u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2018/10/mozzy-sacramento-gangland-landlord-rap-album/572281/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent profile\u003c/a> of the rapper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I ain’t afraid to cry in my music,” Mozzy tells me. “I ain’t afraid to cry out for help.

His father was often in and out of jail, his mother struggled with addiction and many of his aunts and uncles were affiliated with the Bloods. Outside of the confines of his grandmother’s orderly home, Mozzy began getting in trouble at an early age and was selling drugs and breaking into houses by the time he was in middle school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was raised in a respectful manner. There were other households that were less fortunate,” he reflects. “But the streets shaped me a lot. I was stuck in the streets for a long time. It got a lot to do with my character: I’d say the aggressive push, the way I bite down with my music.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842297\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842297\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Mozzy plays Rolling Loud Bay Area on Sunday, September 16, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mozzy plays Rolling Loud Bay Area on Sunday, September 16, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Around the same time, Mozzy realized he wanted to be a rapper like his uncle, GP the Beast, who recorded Mozzy for the first time when he was just 11 and going by Lil Tim. In the years that followed, rapping and making quick money in the streets began to consume Mozzy. He ended up dropping out of high school to pursue music, but music only overtook his street activities much later, when his star began to rise after \u003cem>Bladadah\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In 2015, fresh out of jail, that’s when people started offering me thousands for projects. That’s when I knew—ain’t never made this type of money,” he says, still in disbelief. “First time I touched $50,000, legitimately—I could ride around with this 50 and the police can’t take it from me because I have proof of where I got it from—that’s when I was like, it’s real. When I gave my grandmother $100,000, that’s when I was like, ‘Yeah, this is what we doin’, f-ck all that other sh-t.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2005 and 2008, Mozzy went to Sacramento County Jail on a variety of charges, including evading police and possessing marijuana with intent to sell. The repercussions of those convictions from his late teens and early ’20s follow him to this day. He was barred from owning a gun as a convicted felon, but, as he explains it, life in Oak Park required the protection of a weapon. In 2014, he served a year in San Quentin State Prison on firearms charges. (Mozzy says that, nowadays, his prior convictions still sometimes affect his ability to perform abroad.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mozzy’s stint at San Quentin was a wake-up call. “My dad was in jail when I was my daughter’s age,” he says, referring to his eldest, Ariana-Dooterz, who is now five. “We was in the same prison, though. So you know, I’m walking the same yard he was walking, history repeating itself. I couldn’t wait to get out so I could bite down, so I could get it together, so I could be a man. I had responsibilities and I didn’t want to put that burden on my family.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around the same time, Mozzy’s music started gaining traction outside of Sacramento. In 2013, he recorded a \u003cem>Tonite Show\u003c/em> album with Oakland’s DJ Fresh, the producer responsible for hyphy-era regional hits like D-Lo’s “No Hoe” and Mistah F.A.B.’s “We Go Stupid in the Bay.” Oakland’s Philthy Rich tapped Mozzy for the downcast, piano-heavy “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kBMDZGnhQs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I’m Just Being Honest\u003c/a>“; Joe Blow, another Oakland rapper with local clout, invited him to feature on the nostalgically soulful “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iC65U0DK9Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Locked In\u003c/a>.” Mozzy’s name began to circulate in Bay Area rap circles, and in 2015, he cemented himself into the local scene with \u003cem>Down to the Wire: 4th Ave Edition \u003c/em>on J. Stalin’s Livewire Records, a household name for anyone who followed the Oakland street rap scene of the 2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It just took off from me from right there.

Amid a whirlwind press tour, Mozzy recently made time to go back to Sacramento (he currently lives in Los Angeles). He threw a charity event at a local park where he gave away backpacks, school supplies, haircut vouchers and $7,000 in cash to his old neighbors and friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Provide for your people—I’m just looking out for mine,” says Mozzy, whose real name is Tim Patterson. “I’m the ‘landlord’ of this region, so I’m responsible. I don’t want no cookie, I don’t want no applause from nobody. No matter what I’m doing in life, if I have the means to look out for ’em, that’s what I’ma do, because these are the same people who was rooting for me when it was ugly, when it was spunky, when I only had seven listeners and 10 views on YouTube.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mozzy’s rise to the national stage is particularly remarkable because his subject matter, even on an album he knew would reach beyond his regional audience, is decidedly niche. He raps devotedly—militantly—about a gang lifestyle that’s far removed from anything Middle America could relate to, in a notorious neighborhood in a city whose culture is little-known to outsiders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s no sugarcoating or sanitizing on \u003cem>Gangland Landlord\u003c/em>, either. Unlike Migos or Future, who depict shoot-outs in trap houses as minor detours on the way to innumerable rap-money riches, Mozzy is deeply reflective about his street activities and time behind bars, and how both of those things have affected his mental health and development as a man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Smile now, cry later when I’m by myself / More chains for the gang than I buy myself / Misled by the blind, tryna find myself,” he raps in a gravelly voice over low piano notes and a bass-heavy knock on “Not Impressive.” Later in the verse, he breaks from his growly cadence, trailing off into a whisper with the last word of every bar, betraying the pain behind his tough exterior.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/KOVLJdPRlZE'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/KOVLJdPRlZE'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Mozzy is a keen storyteller whose snapshots of life in inner-city America are as brutally realistic as they are vulnerable. “Perhaps his core talent is to convey violence in a way that feels honest, which makes his competition seem mediated, dishonest, even exploitative,” wrote \u003ca href=\"https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/40-best-rap-albums-of-2015-40015/mozzy-bladadah-26234/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em>\u003c/a>‘s David Drake when the magazine named Mozzy’s \u003cem>Bladadah\u003c/em> the 22nd best rap album of 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mozzy’s music slaps, but the gruff lyricist is a bard,” asserted \u003cem>The Atlantic\u003c/em>‘s Hannah Giorgis in her \u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2018/10/mozzy-sacramento-gangland-landlord-rap-album/572281/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent profile\u003c/a> of the rapper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I ain’t afraid to cry in my music,” Mozzy tells me. “I ain’t afraid to cry out for help.

His father was often in and out of jail, his mother struggled with addiction and many of his aunts and uncles were affiliated with the Bloods. Outside of the confines of his grandmother’s orderly home, Mozzy began getting in trouble at an early age and was selling drugs and breaking into houses by the time he was in middle school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was raised in a respectful manner. There were other households that were less fortunate,” he reflects. “But the streets shaped me a lot. I was stuck in the streets for a long time. It got a lot to do with my character: I’d say the aggressive push, the way I bite down with my music.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842297\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842297\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Mozzy plays Rolling Loud Bay Area on Sunday, September 16, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_0741-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mozzy plays Rolling Loud Bay Area on Sunday, September 16, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Around the same time, Mozzy realized he wanted to be a rapper like his uncle, GP the Beast, who recorded Mozzy for the first time when he was just 11 and going by Lil Tim. In the years that followed, rapping and making quick money in the streets began to consume Mozzy. He ended up dropping out of high school to pursue music, but music only overtook his street activities much later, when his star began to rise after \u003cem>Bladadah\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In 2015, fresh out of jail, that’s when people started offering me thousands for projects. That’s when I knew—ain’t never made this type of money,” he says, still in disbelief. “First time I touched $50,000, legitimately—I could ride around with this 50 and the police can’t take it from me because I have proof of where I got it from—that’s when I was like, it’s real. When I gave my grandmother $100,000, that’s when I was like, ‘Yeah, this is what we doin’, f-ck all that other sh-t.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2005 and 2008, Mozzy went to Sacramento County Jail on a variety of charges, including evading police and possessing marijuana with intent to sell. The repercussions of those convictions from his late teens and early ’20s follow him to this day. He was barred from owning a gun as a convicted felon, but, as he explains it, life in Oak Park required the protection of a weapon. In 2014, he served a year in San Quentin State Prison on firearms charges. (Mozzy says that, nowadays, his prior convictions still sometimes affect his ability to perform abroad.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mozzy’s stint at San Quentin was a wake-up call. “My dad was in jail when I was my daughter’s age,” he says, referring to his eldest, Ariana-Dooterz, who is now five. “We was in the same prison, though. So you know, I’m walking the same yard he was walking, history repeating itself. I couldn’t wait to get out so I could bite down, so I could get it together, so I could be a man. I had responsibilities and I didn’t want to put that burden on my family.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around the same time, Mozzy’s music started gaining traction outside of Sacramento. In 2013, he recorded a \u003cem>Tonite Show\u003c/em> album with Oakland’s DJ Fresh, the producer responsible for hyphy-era regional hits like D-Lo’s “No Hoe” and Mistah F.A.B.’s “We Go Stupid in the Bay.” Oakland’s Philthy Rich tapped Mozzy for the downcast, piano-heavy “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kBMDZGnhQs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I’m Just Being Honest\u003c/a>“; Joe Blow, another Oakland rapper with local clout, invited him to feature on the nostalgically soulful “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iC65U0DK9Q\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Locked In\u003c/a>.” Mozzy’s name began to circulate in Bay Area rap circles, and in 2015, he cemented himself into the local scene with \u003cem>Down to the Wire: 4th Ave Edition \u003c/em>on J. Stalin’s Livewire Records, a household name for anyone who followed the Oakland street rap scene of the 2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It just took off from me from right there. The whole Bay started f-ckin’ with me,” he says. “They embraced me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 4.6875em;float: left;line-height: 0.733em;padding: 0.05em 0.1em 0 0;font-family: times, serif, georgia\">A\u003c/span>s Mozzy’s reputation as a searingly honest wordsmith grew, he remained on probation through 2017 and was barred from leaving the state of California without permission from his officer. This posed an inconvenience to his career: his 2016 and 2017 albums \u003cem>Mandatory Check\u003c/em> and \u003cem>1 Up Top Ahk\u003c/em> reached No. 11 and No. 36 on Billboard’s top R&B/hip-hop albums chart, and he began getting requests to perform out of state.

When I got there, I just listened: construction trucks beeped as they worked to renovate the old barracks-turned-low-income housing; birds squawked while flying from the hillside to the ruins of the old Shipyard below; a passing pit bull breathed heavily as his owner gave me a silent head nod.

His grandparents landed in this neighborhood when they moved to the Bay from Texas. Both his mom and pops were raised on Harbor Way. He has three kids of his own now. And though “Do Better” is getting airplay around the world, Prezi hasn’t moved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s an exception to the mass exodus of African Americans from the City, where just over 5 perfect of the entire population (884,363 as of 2016) is black, down from just over 10 percent (out of a total of 723,959) in the early ’90s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the overall population grows, and the black population shrinks, he’s still here.
