AS OF LATELY, THE GREATER TORONTO AREA HAS BEEN PRODUCING A NUMBER OF QUALITY ARTISTS LIKE TORY LANEZ. THE WEEKEND. ALESSIA CARA. AND MANY MORE. UNICA, A TORONTO NATIVE CURRENTLY RESIDING IN THE CITY OF BRAMPTON, DEFINITELY ADDS TO THAT LIST OF EMERGING TALENT. SHE HAS IMMERSED HERSELF IN MUSIC FROM A YOUNG AS THE AGE OF 8, LOOKING UP TO HER FATHER WHO IS ALSO A MUSICIAN. UNICA STARTED TO SERIOUSLY CREATE HER OWN SOUND WHILE IN HIGH SCHOOL. PERFORMING AT LOCAL SHOWCASES AND WEDDINGS. COMPARABLE TO THE LATE PRINCESS OF R&B. AALIYAH HAUGHTON, UNICA'S VOICE IS BEST DESCRIBED AS FUN AND DISTINCTIVE - IN TERMS OF HER UNIQUE AND SUBTLE SOUND. WHEN YOU HEAR HER VOICE. YOU KNOW ITS HER. SHE IS ALSO HEAVILY INVOLVED IN CREATING HER MUSIC:SHE WRITES HER OWN LYRICS. AND ASSISTS IN THE STUDIO WHILE LEARNING HOW TO PRODUCE AND MASTER HER SOUND. IN 2015, UNICA RELEASED HER FIRST SINGLE, AN R & B ANTHEM ENTITLED "REAL ONE. THE BEAT AND MELODY WAS INSPIRED BY THE 1992 SINGLE. 'DON'T WALK AWAY" BY HIP-HOP SOUL GROUP JADE. THE SONG DESCRIBES THE STRUGGLE OF LETTING YOUR GUARD DOWN AND FINDING THAT ONE PERSON WHO YOU CAN FULLY TRUST -SOMEONE WHO IS DOWN TO EARTH AND "REAL'. SHE'S BEEN MOST HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY 90'S R & B AND CITING ARTISTS AND GROUPS LIKE SWV. XSCAPE. AALIYAH, BRANDY, MONICA, MARIAH CAREY. NEW EDITION, BOYZ 11 MEN, AND MICHAEL JACKSON AS HER INSPIRATIONS. MORE RECENTLY UNICA RELEASED A POP SINGLE. "B.A.E" FEATURING BINKZ AND OSHANNA. THE VIDEO NOW HAS OVER 3K HITS ON YOUTUBE AND OVER BK ON WORLD STAR HIPHOP.COM AND HAS BEEN ON ROTATION AT CLUB EVENTS. WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO WRITING B.A.E, UNICA REFLECTED PLAYFULLY ON PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND HOW A CERTAIN SPECIAL SOMEONE HAS MADE HER FEEL THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. UNICA HAS ALREADY BEEN MAKING A NAME FOR HERSELF IN THE TORONTO MUSIC SCENE BUT WITH THE LACK OF FEMALE TORONTO ARTISTS IN THE GAME. SHE AIMS TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF "GIRL POWER" AND INSPIRE OTHER FEMALE MUSICIANS. LYRICISTS. PRODUCERS AND DIRECTORS TO PUT THE ENTIRE G.T.A. ON THE MAP. SHE CONTINUES TO WORK IN THE STUDIO WITH VARIOUS PRODUCERS TO SPREAD HER MESSAGE AND DEVELOP HER SOUND WITH GOALS OF PUTTING OUT A FULL VISUAL ALBUM IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
