Justin Trudeau's son repeats what the former Canadian PM said 30 years ago
Before launching his music career earlier this year, Xav Trudeau, the oldest son of former prime minister Justin Trudeau, flew mostly under the public's radar. But with three tracks already released and piling up plays — his debut, Til the Nights Done, just eclipsed 100,000 on Spotify and 170,000 on YouTube — Xav is starting to come to their attention. The feedback is not always positive, however. 'When I started releasing music… I get so much hate on social media just because of who my dad is,' the 17-year-old R&B singer-rapper admitted during a broad interview on Toronto-based entertainment podcast The Brandon Gonez Show. 'If you don't like the music, just keep scrolling. You can comment if you want, it's only going to help my algorithm.' Having grown from a little boy to a young man during his father's three terms in office, Xav said he's well acquainted with the negativity that has followed his family, but he's developed the ability to block it all out. He also tried to set the record straight on future political ambitions. 'I've seen like what my dad has had to do and what he's had to sacrifice, and it's not really worth it for me,' he said, broaching the subject himself. 'He's done well, it's just it's not my thing.' Gonez pointed out that a young Trudeau once said something similar when asked if he would follow in the footsteps of his father, former prime minister Pierre Trudeau. In a 1995 interview with CTV News, a 23-year-old Trudeau said it would 'never' happen. He was elected as a member of parliament for Quebec 13 years later. Xav is set to graduate from high school this year and told Gonez he plans to attend McGill University in Montreal in the fall. The school is one of Justin Trudeau's alma maters, and the city is home to the federal riding of Papineau, which he held for almost 18 years. It's also the hometown of Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, Xav's mother, and his late prime ministerial grandfather. 'Montreal is like home to me,' he said. Xav said he hopes to release a full album before classes start in the fall.

Why we should be kinder about Xavier Trudeau's new single
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's eldest son, Xavier Trudeau, briefly stepped out of his family's shadow on Friday when he released his debut single. Titled Til The Nights Done, the R&B song was released under the artist name Xav on music streaming platforms. While many were quick to jump in the comment section and share their critiques of the track, Toronto Star culture reporter Richie Assaly argued the (albeit bland) track offered a reprieve from an otherwise chaotic state of the world. Today on Commotion, Assaly tells host Elamin Abdelmahmoud why he welcomes Xavier Trudeau's foray into the music industry. WATCH | Today's episode on YouTube (this segment begins at 14:43):

WATCH — Xavier Trudeau responds to haters after dropping debut single
PM's 17-year-old son launches music career Xavier Trudeau, the 17-year-old son of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, has just launched his music career under the name Xav. He dropped his debut single on Friday, an R&B track titled Til The Nights Done. The track was released on major platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, along with a music video on YouTube. Reactions poured in, with many comments praising the track and congratulating Xav. Others, however, were quick to hate. Many of the negative comments focused on Xav's father rather than the music itself. Want to see how Xav responded to the haters? CBC Kids News contributor Sophia Smoke interviewed him, so watch the video below to find out. Does the Trudeau name help or hurt? While Xav may have to navigate some negativity related to his dad, music industry expert Eric Alper said he could also use his father's fame to his advantage. 'He absolutely should trade on the name,' Alper told CBC News in a previous interview. 'The curiosity factor will open some opportunities.' But Xav will also have to prove himself, Alper said. According to Xav, his next opportunity to do that isn't too far away. He hinted that a new single, called Everything I Know, would be coming out soon. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Justin Trudeau's son Xavier, forays into music with debut R&B single
Social Sharing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's 17-year-old son Xavier Trudeau marked his official launch into the world of music on Friday with the debut single of his R&B track Til The Nights Done. "What you know about me, I ain't like him," young Trudeau sings. "We could roll sum, we could light one." "It's hard to escape the shadow of a famous parent or sibling, and he acknowledges that head-on in the lyric, 'What you know about me, I ain't like him'," music publicist Eric Alper told CBC News. "That kind of self-awareness is key when stepping into the public eye." The song, which draws inspiration from fellow Canadian artists Drake, The Weeknd and Justin Bieber, was released at 12 a.m. ET across all major streaming platforms and features additional vocals from younger sister Ella-Grace Trudeau. The music video is set to be released on Xav's YouTube channel at 4:30 p.m. ET. Til The Nights Done was produced by Vishal "Duava" Daluwatte and Joey "Tekika" Boyer, co-founders of Ottawa-based Pathway Music Group. What is interesting is that he had the option to go the major-label route — Universal would have likely been an easy path —but he chose to stay independent, saying a lot about his artistic spirit, says Alper. "He absolutely should trade on the name; it'll get him in the door … the curiosity factor will open some opportunities, but from there, it's on him to prove himself as a compelling artist beyond the last name. And I think he's got the vibe and chops to do it," Alper said. Xav's music release comes amid his father's tumultuous political career, with the comments section on social media filled with a mix of praise for his music and dislike toward the outgoing prime minister. "We let the music speak for itself and we just want Xav to do what Xav wants to do," Daluwatte told CBC News. Dark, moody and ambient Til The Nights Done, which leans into that dark, moody R&B space that artists such as Don Toliver and Post Malone have mastered, was first teased on Instagram and YouTube in January, with mother Sophie Grégoire commenting, "Good work guys!" The song is written like a love letter to somebody you know you have a connection with, reflecting a romance that can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster, knowing that despite good times or bad, the love always stays there, co-writer Daluwatte told CBC News. "We could dim em all down or leave the lights on," Xav croons. "Baby we could move in slow motion till the nights done." Xav will be releasing his next song within the next month, Daluwatte said, with a lot more music lined up for release, and plans for concerts and performances to follow. "If he can back up the intrigue with strong songwriting and consistent releases, he has a real shot at carving out his own space in the industry," Alper said. Though the song alludes to smoking marijuana, Xav is technically too young to "roll sum" or "light one" as the legal age to use cannabis is 19 in Ontario and 21 in Quebec, after Trudeau's Liberal government legalized the recreational use of the drug in 2018.
