Cquel

Cquel captivates the crowd with his ability to mix a veteran like old school hip hop sound with the smooth and relevant delivery of todays new music. He approaches the mic with the confidence of raps biggest stars and holds his own amongst todays most popular Canadian hip-hop acts.

Cquel released his most recent EP entitled ‘Meal Ticket’ in October of 2014. It was entirely produced by Juno award winning producer Relic (Shad, Ghetto Concept). This is his third release in the last two years. Amongst Cquel’s previous work include a collaboration on his March 2014 release ‘Sentencing Circle’ with Self Jupiter of the legendary LA rap group Freestyle Fellowship, and his May 2013 LP entitled ‘Dirty Thirties’ yielded two music videos including the crowd favorite ‘Patriot Love.

Cquel toured Canada twice in 2014 with Fake Four artist Factor Chandelier and Evil Ebenezer of the Stomp Down Killaz, and co-headlined a Western Canadian tour with Calgary hip hop group The Random Humans to finish the year. In 2014 alone Cquel co-headlined a show with Kyprios (formerly of Sweatshop Union), and shared stages with Canadian hip hop heavy weights like SonReal, Merkules, Pigeon Hole, Sweatshop Union, D-Sisive, Moka Only and more. He started off 2015 with a Western Canadian tour with Evil Ebenezer and Factor Chandelier doing shows along the way with MadChild and Demrick, Merkules, and Oakland rapper Kirby Dominant of Paranoid Castle. He has also shared the stage in 2015 with Grand Analog, Pimpton, and will tour extensively this year.

Not only has Cquel’s fan base grown significantly this past year, but his music and live performance has made him a difficult act to follow. Cquel has recently received one on one coaching from live show expert Tom Jackson, Tom also coaches Billboard chart toppers Lecrae, Taylor Swift, and many more. Cquel is well on his way to captivating a much larger fan base and solidifying himself as an artist to be taken seriously in Canada and across the world.
