His music thrives on riding the continuously changing wave that is the Afrobeats sound which has also been constantly with the continuous fusions of genres to make it even broader, he demonstrates this well on his breakout single 'Again'.

With his unique combination of coyness, humour and self-conviction, Marz positions himself as an individual that's open to having honest conversations that he often transposes into lyrics layered into melodies.
