PØNZØ: Turning Struggle Into Sound and Finding His Voice Through Authentic Expression

Raised in the vibrant city of Naples, Florida, 29-year-old Cuban artist PØNZØ has found his voice in a way that feels both raw and refreshing. Born in Miami and shaped by his surroundings, PØNZØ didn’t always picture himself behind the mic — but life had other plans. What began as a moment of desperation turned into a journey of self-discovery and expression that now fuels every beat, bar, and verse he creates.


The start of PØNZØ

“I’ve always been around music,” PØNZØ shares, “but I never had the courage to step in front of the mic until one day I was pushed into it out of desperation. I never looked back.” That push led him to BandLab, where his sound began to take shape — an authentic blend of emotion and experience that resonates deeply with listeners.


accomplishments for his latest single

Just recently, his latest single “Tossin n Turnin” dropped across all platforms and has already gained nearly 500 Spotify streams since its release — a milestone that marks only the beginning. The track offers a glimpse into his upcoming album, Hope U Understand, a 7-track project set to release November 6th, featuring one fully Spanish song that pays homage to his roots.


What makes his music different from others

What sets PØNZØ apart is his full independence. He records, mixes, and masters all his own music, designs his own artwork, and even handles the filming and editing for his visuals. That hands-on approach allows his creativity to remain unfiltered — every sound and image is authentically his.


One man army

“I’m doing everything on my own,” he explains. “From recording to visuals — it’s all me. I just want to connect with people who might need my music the way I needed it.”


what’s next for PØNZØ

Looking ahead, PØNZØ sees himself performing alongside other hungry, independent artists — doing local shows, connecting with new audiences, and continuing to grow his sound organically. His goal isn’t just fame; it’s impact. “I’m new, but I’m hungry,” he says. “I want my sound to be a noise people can’t ignore — not for fame, but to reach those who need something different.”


With his authentic energy, relentless drive, and a message that comes straight from the heart, PØNZØ is quickly carving out his space in the scene — and Hope U Understand is just the beginning.
