Making a music video if you're a Canadian artist can be easy if you have the right grant-writer on your team, and most experienced musicians have a few of those on the roster. Today, the MuchFACT grants were announced and accidentally showed off that we'll be getting visuals from artists like Majid Jordan, DVSN, and Belly. Majid Jordan's video doesn't have an accompanying song out as of yet, so expect "Every Step, Every Way" at some point in 2016, and the excellent "With Me" by DVSN might finally lead us to find out the vocalist's true identity.A total of $542,000 Canadian dollars (which converts to roughly $15 USD) was awarded to 25 recipients. As part of a new initiative for artist development, part of the budget was dedicated to online music video, the recipients of which were chosen by a "super jury" made up of Sam Roberts, Max Kerman, Kardinal Offishall, and Gavin Brown.
