Flii Stylz

Flii Stylz has been a multi-talented entertainer all his life. Born Anwar Burton in Oakland, CA, Flii started dancing at the age of four with no particular influence or idol. Living his youngest years in the ghettos of East Oakland at 92nd and Sunnyside, opportunity was rare. At the age of five, he competed in his first dance competition taking 3rd place against competitors three to four times his age. After winning that competition and earning his first check from entertaining ($75.00), he continued to polish his talent and nurture his love for hip-hop.

His career as a rap artist started at the age of twelve when he and his best friend, Larry "Lil Larry" Olden, were placed in a 24-track recording studio by Michael "Dap" Daniel. Michael was the first to recognize the talent in Flii and generated his first opportunity. Soon after, he met Walt Liquor of Liquor Barrel Management. Walt put Flii into the studio to record more songs and introduced him to the Bay Area indie rap scene where he began to develop his skills as a world-class artist alongside groups like Hieroglyphics and Planet Asia.

Today, Flii has reconnected Walt Liquor and Fresh Yard Records to release a series of well choreographed movements using the microphone and the incredibly boom-baptastic soundscapes of the one and only Sir Veterano. “What That Iz” is the first single and video to be released and was featured Sir Veterano’s The Gathering Deluxe Version which was released in 2021.
