With the Canadian rap and R&B scene bigger than ever, the Montreal-born, Toronto-bred artist has been making waves with his “moody, sophisticated musical gems.”
From collaborations with brands like TikTok, G-Star Raw, and New Era, to support from major
music platforms like Apple Music, Complex, Sirius XM and more, Patrik has been making a
name for himself with his unique sound and commercial-level talent.
His debut EP Spadina (2018) and follow-up single High End (2020) showcased his ability to
blend hip-hop and R&B seamlessly, earning him over 430k streams and top spots on iTunes Canadian Hip-Hop/Rap chart.
But it's not just his music that's catching people's attention – Aside from coverage during the
2020 NBA Finals, Patrik's songs have been featured in major sports platforms like ESPN, CBC
Sports, NFL, and MLB, proving that his appeal stretches far beyond the music industry.
Now, with the release of his latest works, Patrik is showing even more sonic versatility,
incorporating elements of alternative R&B and Afro pop into his sound. Recently, one of his
standout tracks "DANCING IN A ROOM LIKE STRANGERS" landed at #1 on Apple Music's New in R&B chart for two weeks, further cementing his status as a rising star in the genre.
What sets Patrik apart from other artists in the game is his ability to create music that is both
raw and refined, with lyrics that touch on the complexities of life and love in a way that feels
honest and relatable. With his growing fanbase and the support of major industry players, Patrik Kabongo is well on his way to carving out his own lane and becoming a force to be reckoned with in the Canadian and international music scene, and he’s just getting started.
