about
Moka Only is a hip-hop legend with a career spanning nearly three decades. Hailing from Vancouver, he's renowned for his prolific output, introspective lyrics, and unique blend of melodic rap and thoughtful storytelling. His music explores themes of personal growth, societal issues, and introspective reflections, making him a respected voice in the hip-hop landscape.
Moka Only has consistently delivered high-quality music. His latest album, "In and of Itself", released in 2023, showcases his enduring talent and artistic evolution.
Beyond his musical accomplishments, Moka Only is also a talented visual artist, adding another dimension to his creative expression. His artwork complements his music, providing a holistic experience for fans.
Moka is set to release his highly anticipated new album, "Arbutus Canyon” on November 8, 2024 via URBNET. A deeply personal tribute to his formative years on Vancouver Island, the album is a sonic exploration of the region's landscapes, culture, and memories.
“The album is a tribute to the ‘Longmile’, more specifically southern Vancouver island where I spent my formative years and was recorded between early spring 2023 and late summer 2024. The album takes its name from the Arbutus tree which is a true west coast institution and from the namesake canyon, a real geographic location just north of Victoria.” - Moka Only
Inspired by the iconic Arbutus tree and the Arbutus Canyon, a real geographic location near Victoria, the album is a rich tapestry of sounds and stories. Moka's signature beats evolve while remaining true to his established style, creating a seamless continuation of his previous work, "In and of Itself."
Throughout "Arbutus Canyon," listeners will encounter coded references to adventures and experiences on Vancouver Island, as well as cryptic elements that invite deeper exploration. The album features a variety of interludes, including the extended "Arbutus Intermission," providing a unique listening experience.
