Markit, a Montreal MC originally from Halifax, has been molding his conscientious and clever sound since the age of 16, and due to his organized and aggressive work ethic he has been able to achieve a lot in a short period of time. In 2006, as a member of the rap quartet known as Fax 4, he gained exposure from their album InkLined, which was nominated for two NS Music Awards and attained campus-radio airplay across Canada. Since then he has accumulated an extensive discography, including recent solo effort Mark My Words, an experimental side project with producer Metropolis Votary: Legato Block - All A Lounge Town, and the digital release with Jus: Monster Island. No stranger to stages, he is proud to have performed with acts like Lupe Fiasco, K'naan, k-os, El Da Sensei, Skratch Bastid and Classified. He will soon unveil the next release with newly formed Something Good (Markit, Boy-ill, DJ Y-Rush, and production from Focus Aside)."Markit drops his solo debut with Mark My Words, a smooth ode to concept songs and lyrical wordplay" - Exclaim!
"Markit puts thought into his lyrics, so there's something new to pick up on the second or third time through the album, which is always good." - HeroHill
"Whether he knows it or not, it’s a foregone conclusion that Markit will join the growing list of gifted former Halifax MCs now living outside of the 902. Until that time, I will enjoy Mark My Words, the output of a phrenic talent coming into its own lyrically and musically." - The Coast
"A humble local rapper with the lyrical gift to produce consistently sharp-witted, thought provoking hip hop is going to be getting some national exposure." - Dalhousie Gazette
