California's based rapper born in Sacramento, California and rasied in San Leandro aka D-Z's Hometown, has been blowing the net up with his uncomparable unique style and lyrics but has been overlooked a tad bit but have been expressed through "word of mouth" becuz of his similarity looks and comparison features of the artist Omarion. Although "omariandre" is an alias that was given to him 2 years ago, he remains as the stage name "Dre D-Z" that has been contained since 6 years ago. Commercially and radio-friendly is the definition of D-Z's music which he has proved over the years, with performances at the 3rd Street Fair in San Fransisco (twice back in 01 and 02'), also at the Cherry Festival held in San Leandro (around 02) with his former group UFB (Universal Flowin' Brothaz) which departed for various reasons. Now leaving the burden upon D-Z to conclude his commercial statuz as being known not to be "that guy who looks like Omarion" but lives off the rest of the career to be known as "Dre D-Z" which converts the commercial level of Hip-Hop to break the barriers of stereotypes of the "bling & hoes" but to expand a new insite and overall outlook on a commercial artist in the rap industry.
