Mouraine’s story is nothing short of remarkable; the artist immigrated to Canada from Northern Sudan with his Mother and siblings after they were forced to seek asylum. After finding refuge in Edmonton Canada, Mouraine began exploring the intersection between sports and hip-hop culture as a way of establishing a community. Motivated by his uniquely personal life experiences, a raw and innate musical ability, and an undeniable instinct to connect with others; Mouraine’s energy is endlessly entertaining. His debut release, Cold Mornings 2 led to Mouraine supporting notable artists like J. Cole, Akon, Pusha T, Mac Miller, T-Pain, Big Sean and Tyga.
His debut EP Bigger Dreams (August 2021) features 5 tracks written by Mouraine, recorded at Atreus XO with Graham Smith in Edmonton AB. The project is mixed and mastered by Grammy nominated and G.O.O.D Music Producer Mike Snell (Kanye West, Teyana Taylor). The lead single, Badmon, has received props from The Source, CBC, Earmilk, If It’s Too Loud, Hip Hop Canada, and more. From building an international hip-hop legacy, to raising up the next generation of dreamers, creators, policy makers, and entertainers; Mouraine is determined to inspire a revolution.
