Disenchanted with the deluge of formulaic, market-driven urban music, soso established Clothes Horse Records as a vehicle to develop and disseminate his unique musical vision. Garnering favourable criticism for his thoughtful, sincere rhymes, his consistent production has solidified his reputation as one of Canada's finest beat-smiths. In 2002, soso released birthday songs -- a collection of well crafted songs marking the progression of soso as both lyricist and beat smith. Characterized by beautiful, haunting beats and poignant lyrics, birthday songs asserted itself as one the finest productions of the year, capturing a nomination for Outstanding Rap/Hip Hop Recording at the 2003 Western Canadian Music Awards.
