In the past year, Haviah has balanced both a burgeoning group project with all-female hip hop crew, The Sorority, seeing their debut release Pledge in April 2018, alongside continuing her solo career with newfound momentum. This momentum began with Mighty’s first Artist Development grant from FACTOR, that was in support of her most recent EP, Flower City (March 2017). It was with that project that she started to gain industry attention, and began building a working relationship with booking agency APA, as well as artist management team Valeo Arts Management (A Tribe Called Red, Jeremy Dutcher, Jean-Michel Blais, Boogat). Together with her team, Haviah’s career is being propelled to places it hasn’t been before, recently landing opening spots for Nelly, Desiigner, Kranium, and more. Now, with support from FACTOR’s Juried Sound Recording program, Mighty’s forthcoming full-length project will be a career defining release that will leverage her to new audiences in more markets than ever before, via marketing, touring, and showcasing opportunities within the program. FACTOR has made sure that artists in Canada are able to reach their full creative and market potential through the Juried Sound Recording portfolio, and Mighty is fortunate to take full advantage of these resources at an essential moment in her come up.
