The Independent artist spotlight for February 9, 2019
On the 74th edition of the spotlight, we're going to play an artist that I've been neglection status for some time. They contacted me in July of 2018, and finally we're going to play them today. Also, some of my favorites. They contacted me through the artist submission page on the mix and I want to see what people think. CityFedelia Part raw, street poet and soulful RnB singer, City Fidelia is an artist whose music and storytelling defies traditional labels. An Ottawa native, now residing in Toronto, the rapper/songwriter’s humble upbringing is naturally woven into the fabric of his music and the stories he tells through his art. City’s ability to be vulnerable and authentic in his lyricism, telling stories about his own struggles and the unspoken nuances of modern life, is grounded in his goal to inspire inner-city youth to leave the path of hardship in order to pursue their dreams. He also spearheads Ensemble, a collective of creatives in music, fashion and art working on a singular mission: to bring people together and teach that anything is possible through art. With so many exciting ideas and so much music lined up, Fidelia, is ready to stick his head out and establish his name in the industry, in his own inimitable way. Playlist is on our blog for your convenience. Due to a technical error, the playlist can't be posted on this episode.
