Entrepreneur, rapper, and self proclaimed 'jefe' - Shy Glizzy announces the "Don't Feed The Sharks" pitch competition. The Shark Tank style competition will allow a small business to win a grant of $10,000 for their business. To apply, applicants must submit their information through the Don't Feed The Sharks Website by the deadline of August 26th. With this competition, Shy Glizzy and Glizzy Gang aim to support self-made entrepreneurs and jumpstart small businesses in his hometown of Washington, D.C.

The Don't Feed The Sharks Competition comes as Shy Glizzy gears up for the release of Glizzy Gang's new compilation tape Don't Feed The Sharks. Fans have been awaiting a new releasee from Shy since his 2020 album release Young Jefe 3. Earlier this year, Shy teamed up with fellow Glizzy Gang signee No Savage (who was named a 'Rapper to Watch' by Complex in 2021) for their single "Ridiculous", which quickly became a fan favorite. Now, Shy, No Savage, and the rest of the gang are set to link up for a new single, which will undoubtably set the tone for the new compilation tape Don't Feed The Sharks, coming soon. As Glizzy Gang grows and evolves, there will certainly be no shortage of heat out of the DMV.

About

ABOUT SHY GLIZZY:
The past decade of DMV rap belonged to Shy Glizzy. Over the course of a slew of singles, mixtapes, and the critically praised full-length Fully Loaded, he has posted up 100 million-plus total streams and even notched a co-sign from Beyoncé who bopped to “Awwsome” in 2015 at Global Citizen Festival. He also garnered a GRAMMY® Award nod for appearing on Goldlink’s triple-platinum “Crew.” His bold and bruising lyricism continues to incite tastemaker applause. Of his 2019 project Covered N’ Blood, Pitchfork commented, “As with all of his best work, the D.C. rapper’s latest finds him grappling with trauma, haunted by the specter of death at every turn.” Meanwhile, The Washington Post has applauded his “artfully pressurized style of mouth-music that keeps you listening close, with every syllable prompting a balancing act in your brain.” The FADER has even called his hooks “silky smooth.” All signs point to the next decade of the DMV belonging to him as well.
