Sickick is a masked DJ, producer, and vocalist who samples the world around him to create his dark and sensuous “sickhop” songs. • Although Sickick protects his identity, he has confirmed that he is Canadian. In 2016, he opened a show for Drake. • He created the masked Sickick character as a means of dealings with fear and anxiety that once held him back. • The artist uses sampled sounds from the world around him—such as the hiss of a spray-paint can—to build his compositions. • He has described his music as “sickhop”, a custom blend of pop, hip-hop, EDM and other influences. • Sickick’s seductive 2017 single “Mind Games” has more than 40 million streams across platforms. • In addition to releasing his own material, Sickick regularly remixes songs by other artists. His 2017 take on J. Cole’s “GOMD” has tens of millions of streams.
