"Vanity EP"

While rap remains a male-dominated business, there is a new wave of outspoken female emcees who are not afraid to share their own life struggles. Toronto’s Keysha Freshh is one of the names you should keep on your shortlist of dope female emcees who are paving the way for the next generation. - elementality


"Vanity Review"

She’s been in the game for a while, with this being her 5th album, and her ability to rap isn’t an argument. I was disappointed in the lack of length, because there was an opportunity for it to expand in a greater way, especially with tracks like Rewind Undo and Vanity having the core strength of it all, with Religion providing great lyrical presence as a whole. - Mr Stixx


"Keysha Freshh"

She has a vision which can be viewed as thee upmost contribution to the game, suggesting that she actually cares about the longevity of the game - Esoteric Elegance


"Keysha Freshh's Vanity"

Toronto fem-cee Keysha Fresh is back with a fresher flow, doper beats and more confidence than ever with the release of her new mixtape 'Vanity'. - We in the pocket


"Keysha Stays Hollywood Fresh"

I’m constantly in awe of the music coming from Toronto and I’m geekin’ out that I’m starting to see more and more females taking no prisoners and grabbing the mic (Thank You Lord – FINALLY!!). I’ve been hearing this track, “Hollywood Fresh” here and there but nobody seemed to know who was behind it. Many thanks to Cuz’n Jodes for the link on this one. 16 year-old (!) Keysha from Toronto has already worked with P.Reign and MIMS, and no doubt plans to do it up real big, if this first single is any indication. Hoping to get her on DD Radio soon to find out the full scoop, fam!! Check out the single in the meantime…. - Dj Mel Boogie


"Comment"

"So talented and versatile, done a lot at such a young age, keep working hard and we will see great progress" - Jody Larya, Universal Music Canada

Bio

In a historically male dominated industry, female MC’s have had a tough go trying to find their place in the spotlight. Keysha, born and raised in Toronto, Canada, has been able to make not only a name for herself, but a statement as well.


Also known as Keysha Freshh, the talented
hiphop artist and songwriter has been honing her mic skills in an
attempt to make her mark in the music industry.Since age five when she
penned her first song which was published in a local newspaper, Keysha
has been singing at events across the Greater Toronto Area.She has
performed the Canadian anthem at several community events and was a
member of the popular Toronto Children’s choir (TC3).With the
encouragement of Canadian hip-hop and R & B producer T-Minus,
Keysha’s first full-length rap song, Pardon my Swag, was released on
August 8, 2008 (ironically, 8 is Keysha’s favorite number).The following
year, Keysha – who enjoys writing – penned several songs and in 2010,
released her first single, Hollywood Fresh, which received significant
airplay on commercial radio stations. A few months later, the video and
remix for Hollywood Fresh was released, both of which featured a cameo
& verse from popular American hip-hop artist MIMS. Another single,
Make it Look Easy, featuring Bassline & JB (a project put together
by P-Reign) was instantly picked up by commercial radio stations, making
Keysha the youngest Canadian female artists to have three songs in 12
months on the airwaves.In the past two years, Keysha has collaborated
with several top artists, including Doug E Fresh who is considered the
pioneer of 20th century American beatboxing, Mims, P-Reign, Darryl
Riley, The Rezza Brothers and Ray Robinson.


With two mix tapes, one Demo an EP and 2
front-page magazine covers, accumulated in just four years, Keysha is
well on her way to stardom.She recently started an awareness outreach
initiative – KeysFORAutism — which uses social media to raise awareness
about kids living with autism and an online blog – SpottedFreshh — which
is an urban site that showcases events, videos, music, albums and youth
talent.
