What's next in music is first on SoundCloud.

This dream has been many years in the making for Canadian recording artist Flash Milla. His passion for music began at a young age. In Grade 5, after hearing his friend recite a rap, Milla volunteered to write a song for the school Christmas concert – having never written one before.
Influenced by such greats as Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Cam’ron and Shyne, he’s never stopped writing since.
At only age 13, Milla had the opportunity, courtesy of his older cousin Jigs, to lay down tracks in Toronto’s CMP Studios, well known in the mid-2000s for being home to some of the city’s most celebrated street lyricists.
Since then, he has had a versatile journey in music. He’s done everything from perform alongside Latin/Funk band Rebel Rhythm to working with respected Toronto producers PoPs On Da BeaT (Soulja Boy, Gucci Mane, Lil Wayne), Beat Merchant, Minty Burns, Smoke Shop and engineer Pro Logic.
These experiences have all shaped him for this moment: the release of his official debut single “Inside Hiding”.  Inside Hiding is a single that takes the street life Milla’s both lived and witnessed since childhood and goes beyond the regular, everyday trap music.
While the trap lifestyle may be his focus, he’s framing it in a way that will touch everyone. “It’s emotions, and everyone can relate to emotions.”
Moments of vulnerability, amid the banging beats, and catchy hooks, take listeners beyond the flashy lifestyle that inspired Milla’s stage name.
After facing multiple setbacks – the types of betrayals and pitfalls all too common in street life – it took a month-long trip to Costa Rica for Milla to reconnect with his passion and re-focus his energy on the future. That raw confidence and determination from his elementary school days emerged once again. He’s not waiting on anything, or anyone. His time is now.
“I feel like waiting is what always messed me up; I always wanted everything to be perfect. Perfect is whatever you make it. You define what is perfect. I had to learn that the hard way.”

The Story of my life. I lit myself on fire to keep someone warm, and all I got was burned.  Lesson learned. Charged It to the game..
