Why am I not surprised that Ghost would drop a verse on this? We always say on OTA Live that sometimes you just gotta NOT RAP on an R&B song but alas….it’s Ghost and apparently he was inspired! Via NR.

Chocs chops it up with DJ Sage from CFRO’s The Urban Renewal Project. Check out more info on the show at www.urbanrenewalproject.net.

We were then joined by Canadian Hip-Hop stalwart, the one and only Choclair. He’s been putting it down for a minute, so we had a lot to discuss about the come-up, his relationship with DJ Premier, how to make a girl feel special during the holiday season and what’s next for Chiznock.

For the past 36 years, the Toronto Women’s Bookstore has helped promote critical thinking and the empowerment of marginalized people and women in Toronto. The TWB survived a bombing in 1984, but is less likely to withstand the effects of the recession (and maybe a little too much sex and consequence on MTV–just saying, I love the guidos though!).

Saving one of Canada’s largest agents of print and alternative thought can cost as little as 10 bucks! Give the gift of knowledge this christmas. (more…)

Drake’s best live performance of 2009. It was the last night of his headlining tour in the spring before the knee injury that sidelined him. The date was May 23rd and the place was the Luckman Fine Arts Complex in LA. Tyga, Big Sean and Terry Kennedy even came out during Every Girl to get in on the party. Here are the highlights of the night in HD quality. www.theQside.com

Not the best quality but so far the only video I’ve seen of the performances from the Haydain Neale tribute at The Phoenix. Beautiful.
