Soraï
Soraï is a queer Montreal artist and beatmaker who brings a breath of fresh air to the current hip-hop scene thanks to her assertive artistic identity and original musicality, her sophisticated visual aesthetic, and her intelligent, erotic, and playful writing. Proud to take charge of every stage of her creative process—from writing to production—she crafts her own musical universe alone in her studio.
In April 2023, Soraï confidently released her first single, "Pansements," an atypical rap song with a disjointed flow and beat. In September, the artist released "Pas d'humeur," a blend of trap-based rap, bossa nova guitar, and synthesizers, earning her the title of iHeartRadio Future Star of the Month for October on Rouge FM. Soraï then released Caramel, a collaboration with Montreal queer artist Xela Edna, followed on January 26th by the final single before the album's release, Wasabi, a collaboration with La Monarque.
Soraï's debut album delivers a powerful performance with refined musicality and a strong artistic personality. It's driven by melodic, catchy rap, both gentle and explosive, revealing a new genre drawing influences from modern hip-hop. The engaging and sensitive lyrics, imbued with a playful touch, captivate the listener, revealing the artist's boldness, boundless energy, and shy vulnerability. Synesthésies is a direct portal into the life of a young queer feminist artist from Montreal, determined to bring diversity to Quebec's musical landscape with this promising new project.
