I can’t get a handle on what this Montreal artist, Jei Bandit is supposed to be: is he hip-hop or electronic? He does both even though I only posted a couple hip-hop tracks here. Check out his Soundcloud to hear more of his stuff and tell us what you think!

Long a fave around these parts, we’re happy to see new music from Toronto’s Tasha the Amazon. Solid joint too (do I hear a Kodak Black by way of Cardi B‘s “Bodak Yellow” influence in that flow??).
This is one of the best tracks we’ve heard this dude, Omar LinX ever do. Shout to Zeds Dead on the epic beat.

New Toronto-based ‘fusion’ hip-hop artist blending Hip-hop, R&B, Soul and “a touch of Rock.” Jerelle Fisher is giving me kind Raury‘s older brother vibes mixed with a little Miguel (on “Swimming”, at least). Very water-heavy imagery on both tracks, huh?
Toronto hip hop artist Jerelle has been making waves this past year with his project “Undertow”, a collaborative project between main songwriter and performer Jerelle alongside his team; Colton Maddigan, Eduardo Guerrero, Mat Breiner, Courtney Rose, Sofie Monaro, Nick Cassidy, Shelby Randel, Greg Bradley.
“The project in a whole was my first push with this group of creatives, and our first push commercially in the industry. Calling it the Undertow is meant to represent the pull and the undertow our wave of sound will bring. Pulling people in with the unique boundary breaking sound. The whole project was written and inspired by real raw emotions I was going through for the past year or so. I write in the most personal way possible, giving the listener a little piece of myself with every song..” – Jerelle
This genre bending project that will keep you on edge with every song being different but will leave you with that familiar feeling. Drawing on 90’s hip hop, early 2000’s R&B this electrifying project is bound to get you moving and grooving.
His first single “Tidal Wave” was release in October 2017. His newest single “Swimming” was written off fresh feeling. The hook “I be swimming in women” was an attempt for Jerelle to cloud the memory of a past love, by trying to be with other women, and keeping his old flame in the deepest corners of his mind. The more he had done so, the more it killed him inside.
11:11 is one of the more promising artists riding the wave of the ‘Toronto Sound.’ Dude’s got hits or, at least, a very commercial sound. He could be next to blow! Wanna see what all the fuss is about around this buzzy new artist, you can check him out headlining the The Come Up Show’s 10th Anniversary concert at Adelaide Hall in Toronto on Nov. 30.
