We’d love to meet all of you in person, so please join us this Friday, July 8th at the Scadding Court Community Centre (707 Dundas St. W and Bathurst), from 6-10pm, as part of TEDxToronto’s special event “The Immigrant”.
I still don’t understand hip-hop’s infatuation with Scarface lol. Don’t get me wrong, I love me a good gangster movie but you do know that dude dies at the end alone and hated by the ones closest to him right? So, because he dies in a “cool” way that makes him a hero and someone to aspire to be like? You’re supposed to watch that movie and think to yourself, “Hmmm….remember to NOT be like that guy”. But noooo…..every other day dudes are hailing up flippin’ Tony Montana. WTF. Anyways….new Drake verse via OVO.
Bom! Official video for “LoveSpeak” by Shi Wisdom feat. KJ aka the first single from the upcoming compilation album Keyz of Life. The project is looking real solid with contributions thus far from Rich Kidd, Luu Breeze, SonReal, Nickelus F, Blake Carrington and a lot more. RIP Durty Keyz.
If you missed the MP3 a few weeks back (and a more detailed account about the song/album), peep the links below. Produced by Burd & Keyz! Directed by the homie David F. Mewa!
This is a MUST WATCH. If you missed it on TV like I did, now there’s no excuse. Some real gems in there from some true T.O. pioneers as well as a GREAT historical account of the city’s hip-hop scene.
To coincide with the CBC’s Hip Hop Summit, CBC News Toronto documents the history of Hip Hop in Toronto with the documentary “Love, Props and the T.Dot”.
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.
Shouts to the twins mang. Since 1988 is available now!
Nate Russ catches up with Toronto’s own A-Game and they discuss Rosa Acosta, “Airplanes” remix song with JD Era, 1988 mixtape, Jim Balsillie (part owner of Blackberry), the Toronto music scene and what makes Canadian rappers so appealing to the world.
Promise hops on Lokz‘s remake of “Butterflies” aka the big summer chune right now. Same deal as the Slakah joint…unofficial verse and yet Lokz approved!
