He is a hard worker and believes in hard work and as of that he is always in studio working, “I record most of my music during the day and during the night, therefore I sleep less, I spend most of my time in the studio working and I only rest on Sabbath, and please do not just dream, put on.” In his recent track he mentioned a few clothing brands and he says it is because he support all local brands, not just those mentioned on the track above as he believes in empowering our own local designers than those he does not even know. Mizo's favorite artist is the one and only reggae legendary Bob Marley and obviously his favorite music genre is reggae with no surprise, considering who he loves musically.He stemmed love of reggae music from Colbert Mukwevho who is considered a King of reggae music.Mizo is a man of great talent, it is a not a surprise that he plays the Nyabingi drum and growing up he knew he had the talent in him, he just had to grow to discover it, but he has always knew he had it in him as far as he can remember. He loves the motherland as that is where he finds his peace and he loves that the is no juggling here as people who book them let them know weeks before the show so they can prepare themselves properly, everything is balanced here.
