Tokyofrenzy, born George Smith, grew up in Palm Coast, Florida, where life wasn’t always eventful. At just 17 years old, he’s already carving out a name for himself in the hyperpop scene. But this wasn’t handed to him—he started from nothing, making music with his friends just for the fun of it. What began as a simple escape from the boredom turned into something bigger—something that speaks to anyone who’s ever felt overlooked or underestimated.
His sound is a blend of raw emotion and relentless energy, drawing inspiration from artists like sadboyshaq, ericdoa, osquinn, and lieu. Each track, whether it’s “Hotel,” “Interlude,” or “Middleschool,” is more than just music; it’s an expression of boredom, insecurity, and the overwhelming need to be different. Tokyofrenzy pours his soul into every beat, creating anthems for anyone who’s had to fight for what they want.
In 2025, he dropped “february,” a track that’s as real as it gets—a reflection of his growth, his battles, and his journey. Tokyofrenzy’s not just making music; he’s making a statement. He’s been grinding in the studio, collaborating with the likes of Leavemealone and sadboyshaq, and he’s about to take the stage in New York City, Atlanta, and LA. But the hustle isn’t just about the music—it’s about showing the world that no matter where you come from, you can make your mark if you stay true to who you are.
His journey is a reminder that nothing is given—you gotta work, grind, and fight for every inch. Tokyofrenzy’s story isn’t just about success; it’s about the struggle, the pain, and the relentless drive to turn your dreams into reality. He’s proof that when you don’t quit, you rise above it all, and the world can’t ignore you anymore.
So keep an eye on him. Tokyofrenzy’s not just a name—it’s a movement.
