If I were to tell you about who I am, I'd say I am known by my stage name JUSTDAVEthe_1, and I am a hip hop artist, MC, and producer born in Bangladesh; raised on a farm near Langham, Saskatchewan. I share a positive, healing message through my music. The goal of my music is to give listeners a fresh, unique, and, most importantly, positive experience in hip-hop. Avoiding main-stream rap culture trends (i.e. nice cars, bling, etc.) and encouraging personal growth and community building. I am passionate about mental health advocacy and giving a voice to the marginalized. The signature element or recurring motif in my content is my stage name and motto that are mantra's for my life: J.U.S.T.D.A.V.E. or Judge no one. Unify Yourself. Speak Honestly. Try Always. Do Good. Ask Anything. Value Life. (and) Embark Bravely.
