Hailing from Toronto, but with an appetite for global domination, Mint has proven himself as a one-of-a-kind artist with a sound that proves infectious to any and all that encounter it.
JR Mint has spent years on the Toronto scene honing his craft and making his mark as an artist to watch. Whether it was opening up his own recording studio, Belvia Sound, or opening for acts like The Roots, Blakthought, Down with Webster, and Jay Electronica, JR Mint has invested every resource available to him in the interest of supporting, contributing to, and expanding the canon of hip-hop.
With the impending release of his full-length record, ‘Canadian Mint’, JR Mint stands to take the world by storm with a collection of 16 genre-shattering tracks – with cameo’s from Smoke DZA, Freck Billionaire, Emilio Rojas and production by M-Phazes, Tone Mason, MoSS, Rich Kidd - that showcase his versatility, lyricism, and depth as an artist. With a sound that’s animated, bright, and deftly delivered, JR Mint captivates his audiences as he ascends to the upper stratospheres of genre-bending style.
His style is one that demonstrates a respect for the roots of the genre, but this doesn’t mean that JR Mint is intent on travelling the path of those that came before him; with a one of a kind sound that heavy hitters of the industry are watching closely, his talent is one that the world never expected, and will never forget.
