We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Spitty a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Spitty, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Let’s jump back to the first dollar you earned as a creative? What can you share with us about how it happened?

I actually did this performance at a middle school back when I was in first year of University. I was out at Western University and had to take a 7am train back to Brampton which I almost missed too. Then I had to take the train back at night right after the show, super hectic day and half the money went to Via Rail. Still, an unreal experience as a barely adult really making money off the music.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

“1 of 15 Asian Canadian Artists To Watch Right Now” – Entertainment Tonight Canada (May 2023)

Spitty is an Indian rapper and community leader from Brampton, Canada who is creating a monumental buzz with a dedicated following. His music carries a thoughtful yet energetic nature as he strives to inspire listeners through his songs. South Asian samples and instruments blend with North American influence to birth his unique approach to hip hop.

Spitty’s debut album Full Circle was a hit around the world, receiving praise from everyone including Rolling Stone India & Much Music Canada, highlighting his national and global reach. Off the strength of the album, Spitty curated & headlined his own sold out Toronto concert and performed several dozen times in the surrounding area before taking his music on the road for a 6 week USA tour in early 2022. He quickly followed this up with the 22 show Full Circle Tour, spanning several cities in USA & Canada. This included Canadian Music Week, DesiFest at Yonge-Dundas Square, LAUNCH Music Festival, NXNE, Brampton Canada Day with Kardinal Offishall, & much more.

In 2023, Spitty has been featured on Complex Canada for being a Brampton Artist Ambassador and putting on free monthly open mic events for the community. His hit single Not For Me has been featured on HotNewHipHop and Rolling Stone India. Teaming up with EverythingOShaun, Spitty’s next single, Up Now, was featured on Spotify’s Northern Bars, Shifter Magazine, and HipHopCanada. Over the past year he’s also begun giving speeches at schools, doubling down on his mission to motivate & inspire. Spitty will continue releasing 1 single a month all year long as he looks to truly make a name for himself on an international stage.
