Cerbeus
Joel Exposito Arteman Figueredo, professionally known as Cerbeus is an upcoming local Latin Trap urban artist born in Cuba and raised in Victoria, BC. Cerbeus has been an independent artist for 3 years, performing locally on Vancouver Island and in Vancouver. With influences by artists such as Bad Bunny, Drake, Ozuna and more, his love and passion for music grew into the eclectic mix it is today. Cerbeus completed a ten year piano study program with the Victoria Conservatory of Music and Theory in 2016 which provided a solid foundation for his composition and lyrical writing style. Cerbeus created his unique performance name from the Greek mythological creature Cerberus: “The Three-Headed Hound -The Guardian,” a legendary powerful, dynamic creature that reflects the energy and fierce style of his music. Cerbeus’ vision is to bring his Cuban Latin roots and Canadian musical influence together, and form harmony between two languages while using Latin rhythms with a mix of American trap styles. He enjoys writing lyrics in English as well as in Spanish and at times will mix them together to form a different sound, integrating both cultures together. Cerbeus’s music very clearly reflects where he came from, his heritage, what makes his style unique, and what differentiates him from other musicians. He brings a full diversity of his Cuban cultural background to form a new sound and style that is clearly his own.
