ABOUT MOKA ONLY
With a catalogue that is unmatched by many, Moka Only is often considered to be a pioneer and driving force behind Canadian West Coast hip hop, as well as an important component in popularizing the art of freestyling in Victoria and Vancouver. In the 13+ years since his debut, Moka Only has released more than 40 albums, both solo and collaborative. He records under a variety of aliases, with the most popular being Ron Contour, Flow Torch and The Durable Mammal. He has been a contributing member of numerous groups and collectives, including Perfect Strangers, Code Name: Scorpion, Cryptic Souls Crew, The Dominant Mammals, City Planners, Nowfolk and Swollen Members, along with many others. Amongst all of that, Moka has worked with underground hip hop heroes like J Dilla, Aceyalone, OH NO, MF Doom, Buck 65, K-Os, Sixtoo and more.

But it all began rather humbly in his hometown of Victoria, BC, where Moka Only discovered hip hop culture at an early age, starting out as a graffiti artist before switching to rhyming at house parties and freestyling anywhere and everywhere alongside partner K-Prevail (recording together as Splitsphere). In 1994, Moka made the move to San Diego in order to further his rap career, creating a number of connections that he would later use to his advantage. Upon moving back to Canada in 1995 and taking up residence in Vancouver, Moka met Mad Child, and along with K-Prevail, now just Prevail, the three emcees founded Swollen Members one night at a Denny's, with Moka coining their multiple meaning name. However, a group dynamic was not for Moka and he soon moved on to a solo career.

SonReal www.myspace.com/sonreal

 SonReal is one of Canada’s most unique, sought after recording artists emerging from the new-school wave of Hip-Hop. Consistently inventing new ways of breaking barriers, this Vancouver artist has developed a name for himself through his ability to not only rap and sing, but engineer and produce all his own records independently.

With the release of his debut album "Good Morning", SonReal created a radiating buzz, spreading across Canada and gaining international recognition. Having songs scored in international films helped SonReal clock numerous album sales around the world including several U.S. States, Norway, France, Japan, Poland, Australia, Thailand, Russia.

November 13th,2009, SonReal’s highly anticipated follow up record “The Stroll” dropped internationally. The Stroll is described as funky, innovative, and most notably a feel good record. SonReal’s edgy, melodic swagger combined with a positive message makes this record a great listen from front to back.

The Stroll has guest appearances from Canada's top female artist Eternia and XXL featured Joe Scudda, as well as production from super producer Rich Kidd (Busta Rhymes, Drake, K-Os), and DJ Crown from France (Satellite Music/Major). The Stroll is available through Cd Baby, iTunes, Rhapsody, and Amazon as well as selected retail stores across Canada.
