NEW VIDEO: Stephon Hendricks – Fix It feat. Brian Notice

hyperadmin | Video | Tuesday, September 21st, 2010

Debut joint and video from a new artist named Stephon Hendricks. Don’t know anything about dude other than that really. Found a behind the scenes clip of the video shoot though where he jumps into lake Ontario lol (under the hood).

Anyways, kinda different that an R&B singer has another R&B singer as a feature. They basically just look like a duo. Don’t know much about Brian Notice either but have heard his name floating around over the past few months…

Track’s produced by Bassline and the video is directed by SilveX.

VIDEO: Manifesto – iPhone App (Promo Video)

Manifesto posts all day baby! TheManifesto.ca for all the event details!

This app is your one-stop guide to the Manifesto Festival of Community & Culture with details of all events, venues, maps, artists and other information.

The critically acclaimed Manifesto Festival Of Community & Culture features sevent days of incredible events across the city, culminating in a massive free outdoor concert at Yonge & Dundas Square in the heart of downtown Toronto. Growing to be arguably Canada’s largest hip hop festival in just three years, Manifesto brings together hundreds of artists & performers with thousands of attendees to showcase our city’s talented arts community and strengthen its foundations by building a collective sense of pride and possibility.

Through art exhibitions, dance competitions, workshops, free outdoor concerts, film screenings, networking opportunities, seminars, a pop-up arts market, and much more, Manifesto creates powerful and engaging experiences and provides opportunities for young artists to grow.

Manifesto’s point of origin lies in hip hop culture – in its spirit of ingenuity, raw creativity, and people power, but we strive to stay out of boxes and create a platform with the potential to act as a catalyst for cross-pollination, collaboration, and the growth of new forms in this city of wildly talented people.

VIDEO: Manifesto – Rich Kidd Feature

hyperadmin | Video | Saturday, September 18th, 2010

The Manifesto fam caught up with the likes of Adam Bomb, Blake Carrington, Tanika Charles and more at Rich Kidd‘s We On Some Rich Kidd Ish Vol. 4 releae party to talk…well…about Rich Kidd.

Don’t forget to visit TheManifesto.ca for all the festival events/schedule!

“He’s a triple threat, man.” Yet, would you really limit him to 3 things? He raps, he produces, he performs live, he plays instruments, and who knows what else? It’s only fitting that a guy who’s mentor is Saukrates attempt and succeed at being a master at various crafts. He brought his jack-of-all-trades act to Revival for his We on Some Rich Kidd Shiiiit Volume 4 release party. Slowly but surely, Rich Kidd is making a name for himself around the hip hop circuit beyond Canadian soil. Continuing from the strength of his hit with K-os last year (“I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman”), Rich aims to capitalize on this opportunity to build and conquer. His overwhelming hometown support only compliments his under-rated talent. “Rich Kidd could be the best in his field, no matter what field he picks,” says fellow Toronto emcee (and a pretty damn good one) Adam Bomb. That kind of comment is not one of rarity, as many in this city feel the same way. To be on the Main Event bill at Manifesto, one has to bring a lot of energy, a lot of style, a lot of excitement, and a lot of talent. Rich Kidd definitely has all of it, hence, why he is more than worthy to be seen at Dundas Square on September 26th. Be sure not to miss out on one of the best live performances Toronto has to offer.

The images of the past decades have cast a veil on our identity as a people. We, as international brothers and sisters, are now witness to injustice in real time. We watch our Wars in HD.

It is time for us to claim our faces back.

This video is a global collaborative effort by 10 photographers- from London to Lebanon, Cairo To Canada, Abu Dhabi to America- to create a portrait of the New Global Citizens. They are DJs, MCs, poets, architects, teachers, doctors, parents and children. Most of all they are people.

Thank you to everyone that was involved. We are blessed to have each other.
