11.20.2017

Critical Praise for Tasha The Amazon:

“Toronto’s Tasha The Amazon is a Rising Star” – Pigeons & Planes

“Tasha is powerful, and sounds even moreso over these absurdly big, grimy, hectic, infectious beats” – Respect Mag

“Rising up above her competitors in 2017, the artist has been making waves since day one” – MILK

The Song:

A firestarter who specializes in abrasive and hard-hitting bangers, Tasha The Amazon is Toronto’s hardest emcee. Ferociously berating trendhoppers and fakes, Tasha builds unstoppable momentum with “Ways.” Percussively attacking a gurgling cauldron of an instrumental, created with her production partner Danny Thrax, together as Bass & Bakery, Tasha struts her stuff on the track, boasting about her ends and menacing anyone who would try to stop her.Premiered by XXL, “Ways” is an industrial rap banger, perfectly suited to the underground warehouse parties where Tasha made her name. With “Ways,” Tasha decisively claims ownership to her style as it attracts more imitators: blown out bass, snarling energy, and zero fucks. “Ways” follows “Die Every Day,” her video for a 2016 track, premiered earlier this month by MILK, who praised Tasha, saying “rising up above her competitors in 2017, the artist has been making waves since day one.”

Famous in Toronto for her energetic stage performances and her warehouse parties notorious for getting shut down by the police, Tasha grew her following in the U.S. with Die Every Day, her 2016. Receiving attention and acclaim from Billboard, FADER, and Hypetrak for singles like “Picasso Leaning” and the Pigeons & Planes-premiered “Prayer,” earned a nomination for Rap Recording of the Year in the 2017 Juno Awards. Canada’s biggest music award show, the Juno Awards placed her alongside fellow nominees Drake, Tory Lanez, Belly, and Jazz Cartier and recognized Die Every Day as one of the five best rap albums in the country. A recent signee to the Windish Agency, now under the umbrella of Paradigm Talent Agency, Tasha took her frenetic live show on the road, touring Europe, the United States, and Mexico earlier this year.

Tasha The Amazon Background:

A bomb in a china shop, Toronto’s Tasha the Amazon is an artist, producer, and bad gyal. Notorious for rude stage antics and warehouse parties shut down by police raids, her unconventional lyrics deal as much with partying and hood mischief as they do with anarchy and civil disobedience. The German-Jamaican powerhouse released her debut solo project, FiDiYootDem, to critical acclaim in late 2013. Millions of video views and streams later, Tasha released her EP, Die Every Day, in late 2016, leading to a critical acclaim and award recognition, as well as a string of shows across Europe, the US, and Mexico.
