"Rap is something you do, Hip Hop is something you live" - KRS-1 

What do you get when you mix raw talent with religious values? No not Mase, you get Praverb the Wyse. His music speaks volumes on our society and culture as human beings. He is humble but also very confident in his skills as an artist. He's not trying to be the flashy emcee on T.V. with superstar status, but rather the well respected emcee. This emcee is the epitome of positive or conscious hip-hop. Fed up with the current state of hip-hop, Praverb continues to deliver knowledge to the masses. An emcee in his 20s, he has a dedicated fan base due to performing, networking and the internet. Praverb has a remarkable voice and a captivating presence which draws in listeners like no other. “My early musical influences included Common, Michael Jackson, Sade, Ice Cube, Rakim, Kool G Rap, Aerosmith and many more.” This remark shows that he has an eclectic taste in music. He is a jokester by heart as well. “In high school I was the class clown,” Praverb recalls. With the pen Praverb weaves in and out with a consistent arsenal of words. “I use negativity and tragedy in my life as fuel.” “I lost my mother when I was 19 and my best friend at 20.” “Some events make you realize how precious life is, so I decided to voice my sorrow.” Praverb’s hustle is a combination of determination and work ethic. “When I first started rhyming I considered it a hobby, now I’m into 100 percent,” proclaims the towering emcee. “We have a scene here In Northern Virginia that I’m trying to be apart of.” Praverb provides a breath of fresh air alongside area powers Spoonfull, Bludshot, RPM, and countless others. PViz markets himself on the internet by utilizing his myspace website, http://www.myspace.com/pvizzle. This website gives fans another avenue to connect with Praverb. Emcees are a dime a dozen these days, but Praverb continues to amaze fans with his lyrics. The depths of his lyrics exude reality, a trait that Praverb finds valuable. “There are a lot of people rambling about nothing nowadays; I speak on real things, everyday struggles.” Praverb speaks on reality every time he is in presence of a microphone.
