Mystic (singer)

Mystic is a hip hop artist hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area. Raised by her mother (an experience she explores in her single "Fatherless Child"), she lived in rural California, Hawaii, and Oregon before settling in her eventual home base, Oakland, California.

Early on in her musical career, she collaborated with fellow female producer The Angel and toured with Digital Underground, appearing on Digital Underground's "Who Got The Gravy" album under the name DU Goddess. After earning a solo contract with Goodvibe Recordings in 2000, she worked with respected underground hip-hop producers including Shock G and A-Plus for her 2001 debut album, Cuts for Luck and Scars for Freedom. She participated in the summer 2001 Tree of Life tour with her labelmates to promote the album, whose lead single, "The Life", was featured in the ESPN show The Life and a commercial for Bud Light in 2004.

The album track "W" featuring her collaboration with Planet Asia was nominated for a Grammy in 2001 for the brand new category, at the time, of Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.

As of early 2007, Mystic was on a European tour along with fellow artists Dave Ghetto, Hezekiah and DJ Munch and working on her 2nd album.
