Born Bronson Price, MELODOWNZ is a Polynesian poet who was raised in West Auckland’s Avondale.  His upbringing has nurtured his second nature for storytelling and he released his debut EP Avontales in 2017.  MELODOWNZ reps his roots with a fusion of hip-hop and R&B, infused with neo-soul and elements of G-funk, jazz and reggae. The self professed slipknot of hip hop moulds a duality of raw street hip hop, balanced between conscious raising conviction with a cause.
 
In 2019 MELODOWNZ was the recipient of prestigious kiwi honours, including the Pacific Music Awards prize for “Most Promising Artist”. He has sold out nationwide tours in New Zealand, playing some of the biggest festivals, such as Northern Bass, Rhythm and Vines and Laneway; and he has opened for numerous international artists.  He released his second solo EP Melo & Blues, where he showcased his duality complex on the double-sided body of work, featuring a guest appearance from prolific UK rapper Coops. During the perfect storm, MELODOWNZ signed to Def Jam ANZ & SNIFFERS Records, MELODOWNZ is also part of mentorship programme with PUMA, where aspiring young artists have the chance to be mentored by him and collaborate through their art.  MELODOWNZ latest single ‘Fine’ displays the rappers sustaining growth. The gangster groove is a euphoric anthem that contrasts both rap and R&B sensibilities, as Melo embraces the infectiously carefree attitude that defines his name.   
 
An artist not to be ignored, gaining recognition internationally and quickly becoming a hometown hero in New Zealand, MELODOWNZ is on a mission to share his wisdom with the rest of the world.
