Smart likkle viral promo idea from the kid. Simple yet effective as the visuals from the trailer really compliment the song and vice versa. The trailer is for a documentary called Babies which recently screened in Toronto and is getting a lot of buzz in the “awww they’re so cute” world. The track is off the Goddess Girl project but if you missed it the first time, MP3 is below! You can also buy on iTunes!
Take a listen to my new single “How It’s Gotta Be” feat. Kim Davis. I felt the footage represented in these visuals give meaning to the feel of the song so I decided to combine the 2. – Famous
Take a look behind the scenes as well as at the show itself when Erik Flowchild headlined at MOD Club May 6th! Flowchild is gearing up for his release The Delivery Boy! Sleeping on Erik thus far (smh)? Peep the links below to get caught up.
Mz Chawlz takes a musical breather (so to speak) with The Wonderfuls before taking the stage for her What? What! What?! EP Release Party @ Revival last Saturday. Sick!
Here’s the full video of K’naan’s chop-up with “Q’s” Jian Ghomeshi. They talk about pretty much everything under the sun – the success of Wavin’ Flag and why he changed the lyrics for the Coca-cola version, to the idea of a good producer being able to ‘speak different languages’ and whether he considers his music political. It’s almost a full hour so grab a beverage – a mauby or a malta (Carib of course) – and enjoy!
P.S. Wavin Flag’s been #1 in like TEN different countries.. Talk about having REAL bragging rights to put in a verse, lol!

Is it possible for anyone living in Toronto to not be aware of this song?
Already an OTA Live! future classic, this is a great example of how easily Noah “40” Shebib’s sound & Drizzy’s writing translate with raw R&B (Alicia Keys’ vocals are sooo perfect for this type of production). I hope they do more work in the genre. Vibe-wise this initially reminded me of “Making Love In The Rain” (Herb, Lisa & Janet) and “Funny How Time Flies” (Janet) – two classic urban mood music pieces – but now with the video out I definitely appreciate the message she chose to associate with the lyrics.
This is R&B being comfortable in it’s own skin and we need more of it.
Simply put: a beautiful piece of work with hometown beginnings and visuals to make it potentially more timeless.
