Mannnnn I love me some Tweet (Jully already knows I love her so I don’t need to reiterate that lol)! Anyways…just heard about this show on Friday night. Should be DOPE.

After an inspiring run putting some much needed shine on our city’s talent, Tika Simone puts together one final “Intimate & Interactive” before she makes her move to NYC for her new acting role in the stage presentation of “Da Kink In My Hair” (huuuuuge achievement Tika!).

Check the lineup above – then check yourself at the door tonight – you wouldn’t wanna miss it..

…but we will miss you Tika.. break a leg in NYC!

Huge CONGRATS going out to the whole N.E. fam. 17 nominations at this year’s MMVAs is truly amazing! Celebrate with the whole team tomorrow night at their now annual “Art of Music Video” exhibition. Should be very dope. And it’s free btw.

Here’s some words from director extraordinaire, David F. Mewa:

The Much Music Video Awards (MMVAs) comes at the time of year when everybody in our industry takes a breather to celebrate our genre. The NE Inc will be hosting its 3rd annual ART OF MUSIC VIDEO gallery exhibit and your boy will be in Toronto to premiere and exhibit stills from 3 brand new music videos.

Redway does drugs? I refuse to believe it. Hi Tika:)’

Hey Friends,

Not all of us may indulge in the ‘Almighty Green’ but with the popularity of Wiz & Snoop and many more artists, I thought that we were missing something. I found very many underground successes in and around Toronto that do music and enjoy laying back on Cloud 10. LOL…This is definitely going to be an interesting show. Spread the word for me please. This will be one of the last 3 Intimate & Interactive’s I do before I head off to NYC.

Love you all. Details below. BE THERE!!! – Tika Simone
