Miss Independent

Canadian rapper Trefton brings charisma and sharp storytelling to his latest single Miss Independent, an infectious hip hop anthem inspired by a real conversation about modern dating. The track reflects on a friend’s experience of meeting someone more interested in income and lifestyle than genuine connection, a moment that later sparked one of Trefton’s fastest writing sessions. Keeping the production minimal, he skips traditional drums and lets rich 808s and sub bass carry the mood, allowing his lyrics to take center stage. Produced and recorded entirely in his home studio, the song highlights his self made approach and honest perspective.

Based in Calgary, Trefton began writing at eight and producing beats by sixteen, shaping a sound influenced by Kendrick Lamar, Tupac, Biggie, Rakim, Smino, J. Cole, Anderson Paak, 9th Wonder, and Kanye West. After busking through a period of homelessness in Vancouver, he refined his stage presence and connection with audiences. Releasing new music every three weeks, Trefton continues building momentum with confidence, personality, and playful realism.
