Myer Clarity, 28, is a Toronto based multi-genre producer, songwriter and internationally touring Hip-Hop artist with 4 self-produced albums under his belt. His unique blend of jazz piano, grunge and hip hop combined with his authentic sad ‘raspy’ storytelling has gained him a dedicated fanbase of like minded moody listeners from all corners of the world.

Born and raised in Montreal to a French-Canadian mother and Jewish father, Myer expressed interest in music early, at age 12, after his neighbour Sagi (NL5) brought him to his first ever recording session at the legendary 1180 St Antoine building. Booking sessions with his own saved lunch money, Myer began learning audio engineering first-hand as he worked alongside engineer & local producer Labrat on several demo tapes. 

At 13, he expanded his knowledge from production to theory and studied piano under jazz legend Ernie Nelson. Sadly, Ernie passed away shortly after, prompting Myer to compose and perform a heartfelt piece for his teacher at Concordia’s Music Hall. He went on to study jazz piano for 4 more years with one of Ernie’s students.

During his teenage years, Myer released 5 EPs until his first big break in 2012, when his single “Meet Me @ The Park” abruptly skyrocketed to 30K views in one summer. His local buzz allowed him to open for several notable acts such as Yelawolf & Royce Da 5’9 and many others, becoming  known for his energetic live performance.

Sadly, Myer’s promising trajectory took a turn for the worse after he lost both his mother to a battle with lung cancer and his childhood best friend to an overdose that same year. Now living on his own at 19, he began heavily self medicating with stimulants & alcohol, changing his sound and style to an edgier punk aesthetic. 

After winning a series of local rap competitions, Myer moved to Toronto and toured the release of his follow up album B.Y.O.B [2015]. The album peaked at #9 on the CMJ charts and earned Myer a couple nominations for ‘Best Rap Single’ and ‘Best Rap Album’ from outlets like Canadian Urban Television. The album caught the ear of Toronto label Heavy Aux / Fontana North, which signed Myer to a partnership deal shortly after. 

He produced the collaborative “We Are The Aliens” [2017], and his two solo albums “Not All Heroes Wear Capes Pt. 1 & 2” [2018, 2019] which boasted three 15K singles on Spotify as well as features from Down With Webster’s Camm Hunter and Classified protege Kayo.

After several near death experiences on tour, Myer admitted his struggles with drugs & alcohol and went to his first AA meeting in June of 2018. He hasn’t touched a drop since and has gone to lengths to talk openly about his struggles in his music and in interviews. His new found focus allowed him to rekindle his love of jazz piano as well as produce all of Heavy Aux’s catalogue from 2018-2019 before leaving the label to pursue his own career as a solo artist. 

The rapper turned singer wasted no time introducing the world to his new melancholic persona with his new singles “LOVE ME WHEN i’M HiGH” & “ONE DAY i’LL GET MY SHiT TOGETHER” which both surpassed 25K that same year. Riding off the success of those two singles, Myer Clarity decided to build No Damn Good into his own indie label before turning the spotlight onto social issues with his latest single ‘i4Ni’, which features his latest label signee Boney Washington.
