ABOUT
OSANI is an Indigenous and Guyanese artist, rapper, and producer whose sound blends atmospheric trap, experimental hip hop, and raw storytelling. Hailing from the West End of Winnipeg, his music is rooted in personal experiences—from systemic oppression and cultural displacement to deep love for family and community. Drawing inspiration from artists like Yeat, Playboi Carti, Sean Leon, and Kodak Black, OSANI shapes his own sonic world: cinematic, unpredictable, and emotionally charged.
His creative process is as intentional as it is innovative. Every track is self-produced and recorded, featuring carefully layered textures—from re-engineered Indigenous drums turned into trap beats, to choirs singing modified versions of the Guyanese national anthem. His lyrics often carry cultural significance, like his references to Cree star songs, grounding his music in both heritage and futurism. Collaborations are deeply considered, guided by the sonic fit rather than popularity.
