Kimmortal: Sad Femme Club

By Kerry Doole

Kimmortal -  Sad Femme Club (Coax Records): This Vancouver-based hip-hop artist is making major waves with her current album X Marks the Swirl, and she has just released a video (supported by TELUS) for one of its focus tracks.


A press release explains that "the video features the 2-dimensional pastel world of Kimmortal’s inner spaces - particularly the Structure that casts a shadow in their life. Transported to a colourful room of the Sad Femme Club, Kimmortal is trained to fight the powers and transform the space she is in with their new crew.

"The concept for the “Sad Femme Club” music video came directly from Kimmortal’s imaginative and complex personal dealings with oppressions and structures."

On the track, she spits her rhymes with real fire, while the lyrics hold nothing back. Samples: "I've got zero tolerance when they fuck with my sacred space" - "Toxic masculinity is killing all the poetry."

An artist to listen to and watch carefully.

On June 22, Kimmortal plays the Summer Solstice Party in the Park with DJ Shub in Cumberland, BC.

‘Protect the Prize’: The Polaris Music Prize Undergoes Its Biggest Period of Change

Now entering its third decade, the Canadian critic’s prize has expanded its voting pool, adjusted to financial constraints and expanded to award both albums and songs. After years defined by its refined focus, the changes mark a major expansion of the organization’s mission.

In 2025, the Polaris Music Prize celebrated its 20th anniversary. Entering its third decade, the award is undergoing what might be its biggest period of change. From funding to voting process, the organization is continuing to evolve.

The cultural not-for-profit organization has spent the better part of two decades creating a space in the industry for Canadian acts to be recognized based solely artistic merit, rather than sales, genre or support from a record label. Founded in the 2000s as Canada's answer to the Mercury Prize, the organization became a registered Canadian charity in 2017.
