Wait a minute.
That's not French OR English!
That's right, gentle reader. Isabella Lovestory is a Latina artist based in Montreal. Her edgy music is definitely performed tongue-in-cheek, primarily in her native language of Spanish (she was born in Honduras, but Canadian since her mid-teens), Reggaton with a strong women's empowerment undertone might be unexpected in Canadian music, but here we are.
Of course, "Lovestory" isn't a traditional Honduran last name. Her last name is Rodriguez. This is a persona - she is both a musician and performance artist, and she has fun with it. Music is meant to be enjoyed, even if she is singing about "amor hardcore".
She is certainly an artist to watch.
