This Guy Is Far From A Slacker

Slakah the Beatchild is a super talented Toronto-based producer/singer/song-writer that blends the smooth neo-soul style melodies of Dwele with the R&B savvy of Raphael Saadiq against J-Dilla-like hip-hop beats. He recently released his freshman album titled Soul Movement Vol. I collaborating with some up and coming artist like Drake, Ayah, Ebrahim, Tingsek, Hazel, Shad Kabango, Melanie Durrant, and many more.
Raised in the small city of Sarnia, Ontario, Slakah the Beatchild relied on a modest collection of vinyl handed down to him by his parents to satisfy and fuel his musical curiosity. At the age of 10 his mother was tired of little Slakah banging on her pots and pans as drums & enrolled him drum lessons and later piano & vocal. This laid a strong foundation for his ability to understand music theory. After several years of sleepless nights in the studio mastering his craft, he started to become know first in Toronto and shortly after in Europe. Soul Movement Vol. I, internationally released on the BBE records label, showcases Slakah’s skills as a producer, artist, and writer, and has quickly won the praise and respect of a wide variety of music lovers around the world, leaving them in high anticipation for more. He is now on tour with his Electro-Soul group The Art Of Fresh. This is definitely one artist to keep your eyes on!
