You know we always try to hook you up when we can so shouts to BIU for linking the free tix to their 15-year anniversary event (“City Lights”) taking place this Saturday night at The Great Hall. It’s a celebration b*tches! Plus…you get to see 2 of the best live performers in the city right now, Tanika Charles and Ian Kamau (as well as many more). Should be a dope night so if you’ve ever blessed the dome with a BIU joint then there’s no reason not to be there.
We’ve got 2 pairs of tickets for the night so…the first 2 people to e-mail cityonmyback@gmail.com and tell us the name of Big It Up’s Queen Street store can tell their best friend they won something today.
Everyone else can pay at the door with ALL proceeds going to a charity initiative called “Youth In Time” in support of young adults on a cancer journey.
See you there!
*UPDATE: Congrats to Bryan from Toronto for taking home a pair of tickets!

Working with Singer/Songwriter Omar aka Oh! was inspiring. He brought to life a strong track that I’d built a while back.
Omar had great melodies and lyrics, with a vocal that made it all seem so easy! We worked on the hook together and came up with something we both felt was the perfect fit.
