We finally get to hear from MoSS! E sets it up best:
In Episode #13 the world is introduced to super-producer MoSS. Admittedly an elusive cat, MoSS appears w/ Eternia on FLOW 93.5 FM in Toronto to debut the world premiere of a song from “AT LAST”. DJ Premier, Termanology & Statik Selektah speak on why MoSS is that dude, & MoSS gets excited over some banned vinyl from Chile. Just another day in the studio…
In the upcoming months, eternia will release steady video & audio leaks leading up to the highly anticipated release of eternia & MoSS’s debut album, “AT LAST”. Follow them as they shop for a record deal, promote the album, and countdown to the release date. And you just never know what special guests may pop up… stay tuned! -eternia
Killawatt Records was born of necessity and chance; when Red1 ventured to release a project independent of the influential Rascalz crew, he was offered the opportunity to start his own label but retain major label distribution. April 2004 saw the creation of one of Canada’s most innovative and visionary musical projects: Killawatt Records.
Gathering talent from all coasts of Canada, Killawatt is as much a mentorship initiative as it is a label; “I had learned so much as part of the Rascalz,” explains Red, “so many highs and lows, mistakes that young artists make again and again that I felt I could probably help some up-and-coming artists avoid those same pitfalls.”

Posted this video promo a few weeks back and looks like the kicks are officially out. Toronto’s own Ransom connects with Adidas for a new line of dope footwear. Black 9.5 please! Check out more pics at 1loveto and hit the jump for their feature in GQ Magazine!
Honestly, getting persucted for not going “off the top” is so played out. Historically speaking the “freestyle” started as a written expression anyways. Via NR!
And if you missed it (apparently we did), the video of Drake kickin’ a verse from Thank Me Later at his b-day party in Houston is below the jump!
Two Melanie Fiona posts in a row? Hellz yea. Check her performance of “It Kills Me” at the Nokia Theatre in NY opening up for Ryan Leslie (we need this exact same show here….well, with Ryan opening though lol). Anyways….caught this hiding under the cut on 2DBz!
Frankie Payne links with DJ P-Plus to bless us with what looks like a pretty stunning selection of joints (including some that are already classics in waiting).
Production credits and features are stacked too (whew).
