Yannick "Thurz" Koffi is a multifaceted artist, entrepreneur, and cultural innovator who has continuously pushed the boundaries of music, art, and business. Hailing from Inglewood, California, Thurz first gained widespread attention as one half of the critically acclaimed hip-hop duo U-N-I, where he carved out a lane for alternative hip-hop with thought-provoking lyrics and innovative sounds.
As a solo artist, Thurz's music dives deep into personal experiences, blending introspective storytelling with empowering messages. His work is a reflection of his journey through life, family, and the ever-changing music industry. Over the years, Thurz has worked with a diverse array of artists and producers, including collaborations with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Hit-Boy, DJ Quik, Buddy, Ro Blvd, and GALA Music, to name a few.
Beyond music, Thurz is also the mastermind behind Party In My Living Room (PIMLR), an independent platform that began as an intimate house party and has since evolved into a community movement celebrating art, culture, and live music. His ventures have forged powerful partnerships with brands like Goldenvoice, Coachella, and Universal Pictures, helping him transition from the stage to entrepreneurship.
Thurz's latest project, "YANNICK KOFF IN TIME," represents the culmination of his artistic and personal evolution. The album is a 24-hour day in the life of Thurz and the love of his life, offering an immersive journey through love, confidence, empowerment, and nostalgia. Through collaborations with artists like Ro Blvd, he continues to break new ground, blending classic sounds with modern storytelling.
From his pioneering role in the independent hip-hop scene to his entrepreneurial efforts in the digital and physical worlds, Thurz embodies an artist who is always evolving, always building, and always in tune with the culture that shapes him.

Approaching 2021, B-Lovee dedicated himself. “My hunger for rap was different last year. Now, it’s really there.” He closed the year with a self-released EP, Cortlandt Baby. Across six unique tracks, B flexed his range. The melodic “Hero” chronicled an unlikely path to success, while “Only One” showed a rapper with a standout flow. “People will see what you’re doing and try to do it too,” says the artist who is intent on being original and outmaneuvering the copycats. This summer, B-Lovee further separated himself from the pack with “IYKYK.” Grabbing melodic elements from Wayne Wonder’s 2003 hit “No Letting Go,” B rapped about his command of the block. In September, the seven-figure streaming song was broadcast on HOT 97 and hit Apple Music playlists, including The New New York, New In Hip Hop, and The Plug. As the track thrives on TikTok and Shazam, “IYKYK” was praised by Pitchfork and Lyrical Lemonade.
