He continued singing in church, school choirs, county and state choirs, while also singing in talent shows and other competitions and events throughout the United States and Canada.
While singing was something that came natural to Canty, basketball was his first real love.
He began playing the sport at the age of eight and continued to play throughout high school until he was given an ultimatum of basketball or singing.
