STAX:
“I was Born and raised in Victoria BC (lək̓ʷəŋən Traditional Territory) of Vancouver Island. My families roots stem from Beecher Bay (Sc’ianew) and Ahousaht.
I found a passion for music at an early age, and started writing poetry at the age of 14 which eventually evolved quickly into writing lyrics and battle raps. Though I ventured into battle rapping at school and later on here in Victoria, BC. My music and passion for the scene got sidelined by my addiction and for nine years I was lost.
Now over three years sober, I have been steadily working on my craft putting out music to uplift our youth, and speaking truth of my past into every bar and verse I write. Composing music in hopes to inspire and motivate anyone who hears it.”
LORD CONDOR:
Lord Condor is a boundary-pushing hip hop artist known for his razor-sharp lyricism, rapid-fire delivery, and multi-syllabic rhyme schemes that cut through the beat with precision. A true student of the craft, his bars blend technical mastery with raw emotion, weaving tales of survival, rebellion, and self-mastery in a voice that’s as gritty as it is articulate
Drawing inspiration from hardcore hip hop, street art, and combat discipline, Lord Condor’s sound is a full-bodied strike to the system—raw, complex, and unmistakably his own. Whether he’s gliding over a breakbeat or unleashing chaos over a dark, industrial loop, he delivers with the intensity of a fighter and the spirit of a lifelong rebel.
