Vancouver, BC

Proudly queer and Filipinx-Canadian, Kim Villagante channels socially conscious rhymes into genre-bending experimental hip-hop bangers. In fact, when not performing, they regularly host workshops that discuss anti-oppression and encourage collaboration. Their song “Made Up My Mind” (written for the CBC show Sort Of) won Best Original Song at the ‘24 Canadian Screen Awards — just another stop on Kimmortal’s defiant path forward.
