About Me

Prolific is a 20 year old alternative rap artist / rhyme battler. Prolific's style throws intricate multisyllable rhymes over content ranging anywhere from parody to emotional confessions. He has performed across Canada... from Montreal, to Toronto, through Ottawa, and all the way to Halifax. His battling has taken him across the U.S to Boston, New York and Cincinatti. This year Prolific placed in the top 8 at Scribble Jam, cementing his position as one of the top battle mcs in North America. Nonetheless, writing remains his true calling as he continues to perfect his craft in creating meaningful music that pushes the boundaries of rap.Prolific's album "Think" is now availible online and in stores.You can download the entire 13 song album off of soundclick for 7.99$: Prolific - Think
