Canon

A Chicago-born, Nashville-based Christian hip-hop artist and a member of the Reflection Music Group, Canon cut his teeth as the hype man for Lecrae before striking out on his own in 2012. He cracked the Billboard 200 in 2014 with the release of the EP Loose Canon, Vol. 2, but a near-death accident nearly derailed his career. Two years passed before the arrival of his next project, Loose Canon, Vol. 3, which like 2018's Home and his 2019 collaboration with Derek Minor and Byron Juane, Whole Team Winning, made a strong showing on Billboard's top rap albums chart. In 2021 he issued the triumphant single "I Made It" ahead of the arrival of the EP We Made It, which arrived later that year. Aaron "Canon" McCain was raised in a lower middle-class area of the Windy City on a steady diet of secular hip-hop. However, with the help of his church-going mother and grandfather, McCain managed to survive early flirtations with drugs, crime, and gang violence and shift his focus to the less prominent but no less powerful spiritual side of the music that shaped his formative years. After attending Bible College in Memphis, McCain hooked up with CCM hip-hop giant, producer, and entrepreneur Lecrae, who, along with mentors like Reach Records frontman Derek Minor, helped to get the budding artist's career off the ground. The newly minted Canon dropped his first mixtape, The Great Investment, in 2009, followed by a feature on Lecrae's 2011 release Rehab: The Overdose. He spent the remainder of the year on tour with Lecrae until inking a deal of his own with Reflection Music Group. The resulting EP, Loose Canon, arrived in 2012, followed in 2013 by his official debut long-player, Mad Haven. In 2014 Canon returned with his second EP, the RayRock- and Eighty7-produced Loose Canon, Vol. 2. At the end of the year, while attempting to assist at the scene of a car crash, he suffered a number of injuries that forced him into recovery for months. He returned to the stage in 2015 and began recording a follow-up to Loose Canon, Vol. 2. Loose Canon, Vol. 3 arrived a year later. Climbing to number 15 on the Billboard Rap chart, the third installment featured guests like Derek Minor ("Over Do It") and TJ Pompeo ("My Little Baby"). Canon returned in December 2018 with the full-length album Home, followed by Whole Team Winning (with Derek Minor and Byron Juane) in 2019. Two years later Canon returned with We Made It, a moving seven-track set that dealt with themes of anxiety and depression.
