Cartel Madras are a Canadian Experimental hip-hop duo comprised of sisters Eboshi and Contra. Born in Chennai in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu and raised in Calgary, Canada, their music is a cultural syncretism; an experimental heady mix of trap, punk, and house. Known for their explosive and aggressive live performance style, Cartel Madras delivers their music by combining elements of the underground queer and punk scene. Signed to Sub Pop Records after being A&R scouted during their first Sled Island performance, they continue to make radical, racy music and push their art forward by producing and directing their music videos, and putting on unforgettable shows.
