Korry Deez
Korry Deez is a
gritty, yet soulful, emcee and a producer of groove heavy hip hop that
can effortlessly make people catch a vibe. Hailing from Toronto, one of
today's burgeoning music scenes, Deez quickly puts his name up there
with some of his city's best. With Gotta Get It, Korry addresses
several life issues, some of which forced him to take a decade long
departure from the game. Upon his return, it is evident he has
sharpened his dynamic musical abilities and is set to take the
spotlight that once evaded him.
Toronto-based rap
artist Korry Deez has been creating a musical utopia for years,
illustrating the passion he has for creating gritty, yet soulful hip
hop music from the heart. As 1/3 of Canadian supergroup IRS and
cofounder of the megacity rap crew Monolith, Deez has made a
significant impact on both international and national levels. Having
been a regular in Kardinal Offishall's live show for over 5 years, he
has graced the stage with the likes of Sean Paul, The Bootcamp Clik,
Declaime, Planet Asia, K-os, Swollen Members, Jully Black, O.C.,
Classified, Shaggy & J-Live to name a few.
On his debut album with IRS, Welcome To Planet Irs (Universal Music),
Deez stretched rap's boundaries by creating a masterpiece. This led to
a Juno nomination for best rap recording in 2004 and their album, to
this day, is considered to be a Canadian classic. Maybe his most
memorable moment came on a timeless track by Kardinal, "Ol' Time
Killin", where he completely destroys the song, boasting a hip hop
quotable type verse while 'blessing it effortlessly'. The video for
"Ol' Time Killin" was directed by the highly acclaimed Mr. X, airing on
BET, MTV, MuchMusic & Musique Plus.
IRS went on to being 'Rated Next' on BET with their smooth, bumping
groove "T.R.A.C.K.S.' Lament" which garnered them even more major label
distribution with Sony/RED and Avatar in the US. Deez has collaborated
with renowned producers: Jake One, Rich Kidd, Elaquent, Tone Mason,
Lancecape, Mr. Attic, Lyve and Solitair while appearing on many a song
and compilation over the last decade.
Coming off of a long hiatus, Korry has gone back to his more musical
roots in funk, soul, electronic, blues and jazz music. Now harnessing
stronger artistic capabilities, he has fused his influences into one
rich, solid soundscape, producing a more musical blend of hip hop.
Korry states that he has been "replenished with a hunger never felt
before". He is now set to return with his first solo album 'Imago',
where he unravels from a cocoon-like state to show a growth and
maturity few in music today could replicate. When Korry Deez returns
with 'Imago’, it will yet again put him in the conversation of who to
be watching for in an ever-changing hip hop world.
