In this episode, we sit down with YSN Fab, a Win­nipeg native who trans­formed per­son­al chal­lenges into musi­cal tri­umphs. Start­ing his jour­ney as a foot­ball play­er, a career-end­ing injury led him to dis­cov­er his pas­sion for rap. Since then, YSN Fab has released mul­ti­ple suc­cess­ful projects, includ­ing his debut album Made 4 More in 2020, and the EPs Thru The Thun­der and After The Storm in 2023. With over 80 mil­lion streams across plat­forms and more than 23 mil­lion YouTube views, he con­tin­ues to put Win­nipeg on the map. Join us as YSN Fab shares his inspir­ing jour­ney, the real­i­ties of the music indus­try, and his vision for the future.
