Album Notes

Discreet Da Chosen 1 has drawn considerable media attention for his performances alongside some of today’s influential hip-hop acts—The Game and Chamillionaire—and for his appearances on MTV Canada and CityTV. His diverse background has groomed him to become that rare combination of multi-talented artist and uncompromising social activist.

Discreet uses his diverse background as an Aboriginal African-Canadian to bring a unique worldview to the hip-hop scene. His trailblazing music is imbued with empowerment without the easy glorification of drugs and violence. He welcomes the challenge of crafting each lyric without a single utterance of profanity to create a sound that is awe-inspiringly creative.

His words onstage are what he lives by. Hailing from the Squamish Nation, Discreet takes pride in representing his people with dignity. He embraces the lifelong rewards of a healthy lifestyle, advanced education, and a strong work ethic. As evidence, one only has to look at his graduation from film school, his involvement with Snake Eyes Entertainment, and his C.E.O. position at Knownwell Product-shuns.

Discreet has gained critical acclaim for working with up and coming Native hip-hop acts such as Sunday School Dropouts and Rez Official. He has also performed for the NAACP and numerous peace rallies. And he takes time out of his hectic schedule to educate youth on the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse.
