Teon Gibbs Goes Above and Beyond on "Easy"

[Evan Parker]

Hip hop artist Teon Gibbs is quickly becoming one of the most well known voices coming out of Canada. Originally from Botswana, Teon has lived in the UK, South Africa and Angola before settling in Vancouver, Canada. 

His charming, second single from his own label, 100 Collective Records, is “Easy.” It’s inspired by new love – one that has successfully moved from friends to lovers. For Teon, the relationship snapped into place and felt easy. 

“‘Easy’ is meant to feel like floating, kind of embodying the joy of a new relationship with someone and trying to hold on to those moments of new love,” explains Teon. “I developed the drum pattern and then brought in an A-list Team. Falcxne, JT, Jaspa, Jub and Nate from Potatohead People and I created this song off of pure synergy. This genre-bending single feels like a milestone moment in my career growth, and sound exploration. Feel like it gives people a taste of what’s to come next.”
