Meet Mattmac, the blind Oji-Cree artist who writes, raps and produces his own music. | CBCIndigenous

Matthew Monias, a.k.a. Mattmac, is rising on Indigenous music charts.From small gospel jamborees on the rez to the bright lights of the big city, one self-taught, blind Oji-Cree artist is hoping his music will break down barriers for other young people with disabilities.

Monias said he has never let his disability deter him from learning how to play piano, guitar and drums, and to sing, write and eventually produce all of his own music."I've had pointers given to me here and there about [digital audio workstations]... about music theory... but most of my skill is self taught."

With the new project, Hodges hopes to continue supporting Monias's talent development as an artist as well as the business side of the industry.Over the past five years, Monias has learned to navigate the internet using assistive technology that he uses converts text to speech.

NB '… they [shell companies] are a concern for money laundering and financial crimes given that they are easy to form, inexpensive to operate and are structured in a manner designed to conceal the transactional details of the entities.' then BAN these shadowy entities already!
