Tyler Adam (born April, 29th 1986) is a self-made electro-pop singer-songwriter, an independent record label owner, a radio show host, and a multi-genre producer. Music double stuffed with hot-breath raps and slithery electro pulses successfully punctuated with leather gloved hand claps is only the beginning for this Canadian small town artist.
Jack Kitty Records is a Canadian independent record label, founded in 2006 by the 20 year old Tyler Adam as a way to distribute music and maintain 100% control.
In Fall 2006 Tyler released an underground mix tape called So Fly Vol. 1

January and February 07 the debut solo album on Jack Kitty Records titled A B S U R D was recorded at The Dream Studio in Peterborough Ontario.
This album found Tyler with an in your face and down your pants style that was completely new. Tyler was producing for himself and this ten track [LP] was written about his raw emotions, primarily sexual! The lead single Fuck The Chase (feat. B-Rock) was also written by Brendan McGovern aka B-Rock. The albums opening number is a poem from Ty's childhood being performed by Sense In Common. Even Kaitlin McNeil lends background vocals on title track as well as on the closing song Hear My Calling
During A B S U R D sessions early 07 Tyler and Kaitlin recorded politically charged Money Hungry World composed by The UKs Antzilla featuring UK MC Razor. Tyler also recorded Inhale a song written and produced by Dead Eyes Dog of Thailand and wrote and recorded System with Japanese MC Dai. He also wrote and recorded For Lovers Not Fighters composed by tOtaLcULt (The UK).
Then in March 07 on the tail end of recording sessions for A B S U R D a new friend from the UK jumped on a plane and traveled to Canada. This new friend was Fiem.
With Tyler on Production and Fiem on lyrics and vocals they created Progress [LP] in just two weeks.
Tyler Adam and Fiem duet on the mellow industrial tune Are You? Fiem and Lando (of Tha Light) school you on the urban Only The Truth. This seventeen track [LP] was released side by side with A B S U R D in April 2007.
