K’naan & The Cons trade verses on Dj Green Lantern’s Invasion Radio.

Seen on NR.

This is a lil’ late but I actually haven’t seen a lot of footage from Stylus Weekend other than this (and it just came out). Anyways…Stylus Weekend was amazing once again. Big shouts to SFA for putting this lil’ clip together from the conference we hosted. Oh, and big shouts to Toronto’s Suge Knight LOL!!!

Shouts to Peter Jackson, Royce Da 5’9″ and director Chris Stacey. I’ve witnessed PJ do almost everything he claims in this song and personally co-sign his intense hustler mentality. We’ve connected on several ventures from promoting concerts for Joe Budden to Wu Tang to my Hip Hop Ain’t Dead It Lives In The North T-shirts to the coming Busta Rhymes Tour which we’ll both be on (he’ll be rapping, I’ll be selling merchandise).

WOW!!! I can’t stress the importance of this clip enough!!!

We talk about this on OTA Live all the time. So much Toronto hip hop history right here in this clip. Especially the T.O. vs. NY battle footage from the Concert Hall at the end of the clip. That’s a historic night. That was one of Ron Nelson’s events (see how rammed it was) and that might of been the same night Ivan Berry discovered King Lou from Dream Warriors (in the bathroom rapping of all places lol). This is the same night where Rumble battled KRS-One. Michie not only destroys her competition but would later go on to tell KRS that it was ok to incorporate Jamaican patois in his raps (historic)! Toronto was the first destination for NY rappers to travel to to test their chops outside of their home town and as we are now, we were a ruthless crowd back then too!

Crazy clip. Big shout to Smugglaz TV!

This song’s been out for a bit but we finally get to see a video for it! Big shouts to Divine but I don’t get the Nelly Furtado shout out at the end. Nelly’s on some new “ghost feature” type ish lol (same with “I Wish I Knew Natalie Portman”). Big shouts to Slakah with the cameo!!!

Someone’s looking for some attention.

Ludacris said somethin`about this once: “Nobody’s thinkin’ bout you plus your beef ain’t legit/ So please stay off the T-I-P of my diiiiick.”
