Cityreal - Passing Me By (ft. Wes Mackey) Official Video


3-time Western Canadian Music Award nominee Cityreal has garnered a respectable amount of critical acclaim for his early mixtapes, his thought-provoking music videos, and for his hip-hop/blues fusion collaborative album Good Morning Blues. The Vancouver-based rapper/ producer has toured extensively across Canada, the United States, and Europe, winning over audiences in both clubs and at numerous festivals like the Squamish Valley Music Festival, NXNE and Canadian Music Week in Toronto, the Centre of Gravity Festival in Kelowna, the World Ski and Snowboard Festival and Crankworx Festival in Whistler, and the Shambhala Festival in Nelson. Cityreal has warmed up audiences for established names like K'Naan, Ghostface Killah, Big KRIT, Ice Cube, Tech N9ne, Three 6 Mafia, Dilated Peoples, and Swollen Members, and has collaborated with notable artists such as Swollen Members, Saukrates, Jully Black, and Bif Naked.
