Learn radio skills and experience professional development workshops with some of Montreal's finest industry individuals. The residency will end with an official EP launch that will happen by the end of June 2016 -- Stay Tuned!!" CJLO, (2016) YosoJi Nobodi YosoJi (he/him) is a Franco-Algerian trans rapper. Passionate about writing and words, he began creating short stories and poems at age eleven. Marginalized, rebellious and sensitive, he uses rap as an outlet, as a means to express himself and especially, a way for him to exist. He built his notoriety in France by taking part in battles that were widely broadcast on the web and have accumulated millions of views. With four projects behind him and 50 stage appearances, YosoJi is full fledged member of the French underground rap scene. After coming to Montréal over a year ago and outing himself publicly as a trans person, he is currently busy working on a mixtape using "old school" sounds, very close to his own identity and preparing a new album that will contain sounds that are completely opposite to his universe.
