“I earned a $10,000 grant from my city, just for doing the artsy fartsy stuff I would’ve done regardless.”
So-So Topic, or “-topic”, for short, is a hip-hop artist/self-taught producer out of Dallas, TX, by way of Alberta, Canada. As the leading man of a small collective entitled TeamFromNowhere (a team of creatives ranging from singers & poets to multimedia content creators), -topic has shared his story in multiple academic settings including TEDx, the Dallas Museum of Art, and presented performances alongside today’s innovators of creative culture, such as Kendrick Lamar, Erykah Badu, and Thundercat (in collaboration with Red Bull Sound Select).
On top of that, he’s the first artist in the city to receive a grant for facilitating his own shows and events, featuring local headliners with all original music.
