Myer Clarity - 'B.Y.O.B.'
Friday, September 25, 2015
With a Steven Martin-esque brand of humour, and the cadence and delivery reminiscent of an early Lupe Fiasco, 22 year old rapper Myer Clarity is hard to forget and easy to remember. Fully nourished off his steady diet of 90's hip-hop and indie punk rock bands, the Montreal native turned Toronto transplant, released his 4th self produced official album B.Y.O.B. in July 2015.

  As an only child constantly shifting back and forth between divorced parents, Clarity is certainly no stranger to contrast. He’s been known to don chains, baggy pants and at one point even a green Mohawk all while belting out his signature double time delivery over self produced gut rumbling instrumentation. This contrast being even more evident from his, “charming, goofy and seemingly effortless” stage presence, as stated by the Montreal Mirror, paired with his ability to, “pull off intense flows while packing ridiculous punch-lines,” as suggested by online blog Elementaly. 

  Ten years under his belt perfecting his craft has led Myer Clarity to seeing out the release of countless EP’s, albums and mixtapes, as well as records with various underground heroes such as Mac Lethal, Moka Only, and D.O of Art of Fresh. His stage presence, relentlessly polished from well over 300 performances, has led him to share the stage with a wide array of artists such as Yelawolf, Hoodie Allen, T Millz, Sean Price, Kid Koala, Snak the Ripper, D12, Cage, Philly Moves, and Relic to name a few. His 2012 video "Meet Me @ The Park" currently boasts +27K views and rising, not to mention, he's performed at renowned festivals such as Osheaga and POP Montreal.

  Despite interest from various indie labels, and industry veterans alike, Clarity has remained true to his independent roots and chose to continue to grow his fan base organically from the ground up. If anything, it is quite clear that the future is bright for the burgeoning talent that is Myer Clarity.
