Tizzo is the stage name of Teddy Laguerre, a Canadian rapper from Quebec.[1] He is most noted for his single "On fouette", a collaboration with Shreez and Soft which won the French category of the SOCAN Songwriting Prize in 2019.[2]
Originally from the borough of Ahuntsic-Cartierville in Montreal, he moved to the suburb of Laval at age 16.[3] Although casually interested in music, he became more active in the late 2010s after his older brother was killed in an incident with the police.[4] He took his stage name from the pronunciation of "p'tits os", or "little bones", in reference to his short stature at the time he began rapping.[3]
He has released numerous mixtape albums and EPs since 2018.[5]
