Manafest
Country: Canada
Genre: Alternative Rock/Rap Rock
Chris Scott Greenwood (born July 19, 1979), better known by his stage name Manafest, is a Canadian Christian rapper and rock artist from Pickering, Ontario. He has been nominated and won multiple awards for the GMA Canada Covenant Awards, GMA Dove Awards, and Juno Awards. Signed for almost a decade with BEC Recordings, Manafest became fully independent as of early 2015 and continues to write and record music.
After a skateboarding accident in 1998, Chris Greenwood shifted his focus to musical writing and began to produce music emerging under the stage name Manafest in 2000.
Manafest's genre has developed and changed over the entirety of his career. Originally starting with a classic feel of urban hip hop for his first four releases, Manafest then developed a style of alternative rock and rap rock by lightly mixing it into "Citizens Activ", and fully integrating it by the time of "The Chase". In 2014, with the release of "The Moment", Manafest's style then changed to a "hybrid" mixture of rap rock and electronic-based hip-hop. Presently, Manafest's 2015 release "Reborn" has returned to his roots of straighter hip-hop.
Manafest is typically compared to other Christian rappers of his genre including Andy Mineo, Lecrae, KJ-52, Tedashii, and Shonlock. Musically, Manafest's rock style is often grouped with other Christian hard rock acts such as Thousand Foot Krutch, Skillet, and Red.
