.K.N.I.C Productions Presents...Gidget/A lyricist, songwriter and MC - Gidget has been blazing on the Toronto Hip Hop scene since 1998. What started as a squad of talented female artists known as K.N.I.C, quickly became the evolution one; which was the relentless indication of her determination, hence the title of her new single “Last Man Standing”. Born in the West Indies and immigrating to Canada at the age of eight, Gidget grew up in the Toronto inner city. At the age of 13, she began writing poetry, which wasn’t a hard transition into writing rhymes. Influenced by artists like Da Brat on her debut “Funkdafied” album, Snoop Dogg on the ‘Doggy Style” album, and Tupac on “All Eyez On Me”, Gidget decided to pursue a career in Rap. Like many other artists who started off by mimicking their favorite rapper, Gidget developed her very own unique sound. Her surroundings influenced her rhymes, lyrics and over all approach in recording and the music industry as a whole. Gidget then began the grind of talent shows, show cases, interviews and networking with other artists to get her name and sound out to the masses. With the success of “K.N.I.C Presents: Gidget & Age”, the then duo’s anticipated mix cd, Gidget got the attention of the The Chronicles.ca, “It’s hard to find females that are actually 100% true to themselves these days…I was lucky enough to experience that in Gidget and Age…they possess a gritty yet conscious formula”. “K.N.I.C Presents…” was rated ‘Replay-able’- 25 out of 30 – one the highest ratings ever given by The Chronicles.ca. They also received acclaim from The Wire DVD – being the only female rap duo (besides another female solo artist) representing for the ladies. But most importantly, the real support came from the Streets. You can hear on songs like, “Money-Murder” and “Wanna Be Kings” that her truthful lyrics and effortless flow make you listen to the story behind the beats. She’ll make you want to dance with tracks like “Bang” and nod your head with the track “Train Him”, where you hear the dominating side of her personality. And to give you a sense of how she was feeling on tracks like “Riding On It”, Gidget says: “It’s just about not turning my back on hip hop. I got people that believe me, so I’m going to spit like everything was riding on it”. As a guest on 89.5 fm, host Nation asks Gidget to describe her flow; she states: “I’m just a voice for all the different types of Ladies out there. I speak from personal experiences and things that happen in everyday life, because of that I’m an artist you can relate to. It’s that hard edge delivery that makes for a unique sound over the beats. The confidence of my voice demands attention and it’s definitely something the ladies and fellas can feel.” If your thinking Gidget is an average, one dimensional female rapper, think again! She has proven time and again, that when it comes to MCing, she’s one to be taken seriously…
