About Me

Sonny Rocwell. Lyve. Coco Dyce. The mind, body & soul of Heavyweight. Brought together by a genuine love for music and an intensely artistic commonality, all three have become one to create a sound with a strange familiarity, a brand new classic in oxymoronic terms.This trio is part of the five-man beatmaking collective known as The Goodness (with Vast Mixed & Smith Rivers) and provide the sonic backdrop for the Heavyweight sound as Sonny Rocwell lyrically bobs and weaves his way though the variety of kicks, snares and basslines.With a refreshing vibe reminiscent of an era in hip hop tucked away in our memories, Heavyweight aims to become the future by adding to the eclectic mix of talent in the present-day music scene.
