Ryan Barager, known professionally as SixthSense, is a Canadian rapper who was raised in the small town of South River, Ontario. Coming from a rural town with a population of only 1,000 people, he did not have many opportunities to perform, record, or otherwise get started professionally. SixthSense started out by recording his tracks while living out of his 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis, choosing to use what little money he had to buy beats. Using all he had at the time, his songs were recorded by blaring the beat over his car stereo and using the mic on his iPod headphones.

 

Having come a long way since then, SixthSense now records from his own home studio. SixthSense has released two albums, Reflections EP and Rise of the Nephalem, in addition to numerous singles such as ‘Limbo’ and ‘Runnin.’

 

Never forgetting where he comes from, SixthSense uses his past experiences to try to help others by often focusing his lyrics on themes surrounding mental health and addictions, as well as social justice for all.
