Ace Wiz, the Sierra Leonean artist now based in Melbourne, is carving out his own lane in music. His sound is a bold mix of Afrobeat and trap, blending his roots with the influences he’s picked up along the way. For him, music is more than just songs—it’s about telling stories, sharing emotions, and connecting with people wherever they are.
Growing up in Sierra Leone, Ace Wiz used music as a way to navigate life’s ups and downs. It was his outlet, his therapy, and his voice. Moving to Melbourne brought its own set of challenges—a new scene, new faces, and a lot of unknowns. But instead of letting that hold him back, he did what any determined artist would: he created his own platform. Open Soul Records isn’t just a label; it’s his way of giving artists a space to share their stories and push creative boundaries.
Ace Wiz’s music has a rhythm that’s impossible to ignore. He takes the vibrant energy of Afrobeat, pairs it with the edge of trap, and layers it with lyrics that hit home. Take his track “That’s My Life”—it’s raw, honest, and filled with hope. For Ace Wiz, making music isn’t just about creating something people will dance to (though that’s definitely part of it); it’s about creating something that makes people feel.
Through Open Soul Records, Ace Wiz isn’t just building a career—he’s building a community. He’s passionate about helping other artists shine and sees his label as a place where different sounds and ideas come together to create something fresh. And while his audience spans from Sierra Leone to Australia, his vision is much bigger: to connect African music with the global stage in a way that’s authentic and forward-thinking.
If you’re into music that moves you—literally and emotionally—Ace Wiz is an artist to keep on your radar. You can catch his latest work and follow his journey on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
This is just the beginning for Ace Wiz, and if his story so far is any indication, there’s a lot more to look forward to.
