   About ARABESQUE

Grief is only the memory of widowed affection’s, Arabesque calms his grief by recounting it. The Toronto born artist has turned the untimely death of his girlfriend and it’s mourning into an unbeaten career. His heart grieves over what he has lost, his spirit rejoices over what it has left, music. Since the passing of his companion, Arabesque’s remedy for grief has landed him a dozen heavily rotated singles on commercial radio and a hand full of videos on Much Music and MTV.

One of hip hop’s most talked about artists, Besque continues to intrigue Music’s biggest names. In 2005, Signing with UK based label Sin Nombre with distro via Universal, “The Frenzy Of Renown” was released with glowing reviews. Shooting videos for single’s “Bellyache” and “Stardust.” He was nominated Rap Recording of the Year at the 2007 Juno Awards, hosted by Nelly Furtado. International press in various publications, also landing him in a meet and greet with The Source Magazine staff in their Manhattan Office. Fall of 2007 Arabesque graced his first cover of an international magazine with NOX, the leading and most admired English speaking Mid East publication. A slew of global 12 inch singles with a wide-reach across campus radio charts. As well earning himself sponsorship’s from US Brands, L-R-G and Scifen Clothing. Arabesque has opened up for artists such as Wu-tang’s Raekwon, Method Man, Little Brother, Zion I, Dilated Peoples and Sean Paul.

Connecting with Flipmode’s first lady, Rah Digga, to record the “Hang Your Heroes” EP. The combination of synth’s, vinyl static pops and clever cadence have made the project a memorable one. Shooting videos for singles such as “Nature’s Phone” and “Anna Conda.” “Nature’s Phone” broke early that year, with soul house magnate Aaron Ross debuting the single on BBC 1xtra. International sales soared, piercing the experimental landscape.

Tokyoites adopt Arabesque’s sound with “Last Life In the Universe,” a Japanese Remix album released by Yanase Productions(Fall 2008). Last Life in the Universe is a melodic album that strikes a good balance between gritty vocals and beats that range from jazzy to soulful to those meant to rock the disco!
