Waine Ghazi

Waine Ghazi is a Chicago-born songwriter, rapper, producer, and audio engineer whose work exists at the intersection of vulnerability and vision. Blending Alternative Rap, Hip-Hop, Soul, and experimental textures, his sound is shaped by personal growth, raw memory, and a constant pursuit of meaning.

His debut album Easier Said Than Done embodies that ethos — an intimate yet expansive record exploring the realities of change, healing, and identity. Through layered production and reflective lyricism, Waine creates art that resonates both personally and collectively.

Beyond his solo work, Waine has collaborated with other up-and-coming Chicago artists like Menace4hire, GreenTTea and The Tempos, devin., and Kaicrewsade — offering production, engineering, and creative direction rooted in authenticity. He also works with businesses and organizations to help bring bold, honest ideas to life.

Waine is also the creator of Spirit Wave, a live event series and creative space that brings people together for something real — where connection, truth, and art collide. The first Spirit Wave was a sold-out success, featuring food and art vendors, official event merchandise, and all the intangibles of a professional production. Whether on stage, in the studio, or behind the scenes, Waine’s mission remains the same: to help others express themselves fully and fearlessly, using music as a tool for truth and transformation.
