Musical style and themes

pop and
electronic music

. However, the change of his stage name as a soloist to Woodz in 2018 was accompanied by a change in musical direction, described by ''Status Magazine'' as an "
volutioninto a more realized identity". As opposed to his "poppier" approach as Luizy, Woodz characterizes his production style under the Woodz name as "mostly

alternative R&B,

while retaining a "signature climatic sound". In a further artistic contrast to his early career, which featured him primarily as a rapper, his releases as Woodz feature Woodz primarily as a vocalist. In retrospect, Woodz described the difference between his personas as a "matter of maturity", with the change to the more "mature" Woodz identity allowing him to distance himself from his "comparatively young" and immature identity as Luizy.
Woodz's songs have featured a variety of concepts and themes; "Recipe", released shortly after his elimination from ''

Contrasting aspects of love and relationships were often the themes of his subsequent releases as Woodz: "Pool" was described by ''Status Magazine'' as a "gleeful", "jubilant love song"; whereas his follow-up single "Different" explored coming to terms with a break-up due to mutual incompatibility, with ''
Maeil Business Newspaper'' writing that the song's lyrics are a "direct expression of the word 'different'". Compared to his previous work, however, Woodz's third single as Woodz, "Meaningless", was described as a "darker" record that tackles more personal and "existential" themes; critics also noted that the song discussed his
