Born in Montreal, raised in Ottawa, and has ties with Brooklyn, New York, the rapper
City Fidelia thrives in changing environments. With Montreal and New York having a profound affect on genres like Jazz, Soul, and R&B, City Fidelia took full advantages learning about all the historical talent that birthed Hip Hop.
Growing up, City's father and brother pushed his interest in music and introduced him to rap. Refining his music all through high school, City has blended the influences from the multiple cities and family to create a progressive R&B sound that involves live instrumentation, synth pads, heavy 808s, and rolling high hats. The track "She Wanna" from his latest release
A Pisces World, really captures his dynamic sound. With a feature and production from
P.Picasso and
Salaam Status, "She Wanna" best displays City's versatility as singer, rapper, arranger, and a beat selector.
Not only is City providing his listeners with quality music but as well as spreading a positive message. City states, “I want people to understand that there’s always a blessing in every situation and for people to embrace their flaws.” Honourable and honest, City's philosophy and music bring a sense of realness and optimism that everyone can find relatable, which is definitely a result of being a product of multiple environments.
