Canadian Rapper Launches New EP; Learns About Importance of Business Side of Entertainment
OG Compass: Money takes you farther than talent
OG compass, a Canadian-based rapper, is currently promoting his new EP titled “Reign.” The EP, which was released last year, also features the track “Don’t Wake Me Up.”
“The track is one of his most upbeat and uplifting songs to date — the guitar echoes as percussive production ramps up along with OG’s expansive and engaging sing-rapping. The artist is not afraid to be different; his positive mindset and potent sense of melody make him a standout,” said Complex magazine.
OG Compass has been in the hip-hop world for about five years and has already had many exciting experiences. However, he says his most significant achievement so far is getting his EP out and going on a press tour to promote it.
“I learned the business, from management to the artistic side,” he said. “It’s not about talent,” he said, “It’s a business. If you have money, you can go a lot farther.”
