After keeping a low profile for a number of years, former MuchMusic VJ Michael Williams, known for his stints hosting Soul in the City and Rap City is re-emerging into the spotlight. He recently hosted the Canadian premiere of the Still Bill documentary on Bill Withers and more recently, he appeared at Stay Gold, a unique DJ event that featured K-OS and George Stroumboulopoulos of CBC’s The Hour in its eclectic lineup. This online interview at Exclaim.ca focuses on Williams’ DJing days in Montreal and looks at the issue of finding outlets to play live soul and R&B music in this country.
