girl is gifted/either hate it or get wit it/ I am what every brilliant mind
envisions..."

Brooklyn, New York, home of some of entertainments most gifted and vibrant superstars also gave birth to this 21st Century rap phenomenon. She is intelligent. She is fascinating...She IS Hip Hop.
Known to the industry as Candis, this
burgeoning female artist has the lyrical poise to fall in line with some
of the greatest of MCs, both male and female. With more than a decade of
caressing line paper with an ink pen, Candis is solidifying her spot as one of
the best to emerge out of the Big Apple. Compelled by the likes of Jay-Z, Notorious
B.I.G, Nas, Foxy Brown, Lil Kim, Missy Elliott and Tupac, it is her very own
life experiences growing up in Brooklyn's Farragut & Fort Greene Projects
that allow Candis to demolish any microphone she encounters speaking truth
whenever she breathes air into the mic.
It was in 2003 when Candis composed a tear-jerking
number in reference to her years growing up and the loss of her grandmother,
titled "It's OK" that she started to see hard work and dedication pay
off. The song earned her a $10,000 college scholarship in the annual BMG
World of Expressions songwriting contest. Candis has a message in her
music that separates her from her peers --- a “heart-felt” message that captures
the essence of hip hop. Candis is a constant reminder of what the entertainment
world is missing.
Given the AKA “SheIsHipHop” by a former business partner after seeing her work in the booth,
the moniker became a no brainer! Since the 2011 release of her self-titled
mixtape “@SheIsHipHop“, Candis has been performing at some of the
hottest spots along the East Coast, and also appearing on internet radio shows
throughout the world, gaining fans on every continent. While most suffer the
loss of their mixtape buzz after a while, Candis continues to reign. Her work
has landed her appearances on MTV’s RapFix Live and on Shade 45’s “Sway in the Morning” show.
In 2012, Candis received three major award
nominations including Most Original Female Artist and Best Female Rapper of the
Year, which proves that this young lady is already making her mark in the game.
In this same year, her website SheIsHipHop.com also received an award for Best Artist
Website within 6 months of its launch. Candis not only uses her website as a
platform to promote her music, but she also blogs about community issues and
promotes other artists as well, including the “Queen of the Month” section that
honors another woman working hard at pursuing her dreams.
With the recent formation of her company, DreamHouse
Entertainment, Candis is not only focused on creating great music and empowering
her team to learn the music business, she is also doing her part to give back
to the community. The DreamHouse “Make A Difference” Scholarship is one of her
latest efforts to provide some financial relief to the college student who
submits the best essay. She is also an official sponsor of the Brooklyn-based Educated Little Monsters Youth Group.
Candis is definitely
the Artist to Watch in 2013 and beyond! For booking, media, features, etc., contact
