Lex Leosis – “innerthoughts”

Sometimes the banality of everyday life kicks off your sense of existential threats. What macro factors lead me to my everyday day-to-day? Toronto artist Lex Leosis explores this state of mind in her latest track, “innerthoughts.” Leosis’s emotional delivery is matched with somber piano and drained trumpet, as she ties lines like “I don’t like what I used to,” and “can’t decide if my life is mine” to late stage capitalism, business-influenced dopamine rushes, and a terrifying new normal that we’re just forced to power through. “ICE kidnaps people in broad day, and we still have to clock in on Monday?”Leosis reminds you that other peoplr are seeing and dealing with this shit too. Wgether it can be a call to action or just a collective journal entry is yet to be determined. “innerthoughts” kicks off Leosis’s 2025 EP love adjacent.  Give it a listen below:

Lex Leosis – “theweeds”

Blossoming Canadian rapper Lex Leosis takes 3 beats to to (re)introduce herself on her latest single, “theweeds.” Formerly of rap trio The Sorority, Lex has spent the last half decade perfecting her solo sound, and now that she’s on the other side of COVID and other health scares, she’s ready to take her sound worldwide. “theweeds” has three distinct sections, separated by instrumental changes from produced Harry Jay as well as Lex’s own narration. Her aggressive flow, confidence between the bars and tenacious one-liners combine for a highly engaging experience — especially when Lex combines her rapping with singing accents. You can find “theweeds” on our New and Rising Hip Hop playlist on Spotify — be sure to check out the music video for this track too, and get a taste of Lex’s poise and presence on the mic.
