Fireworks

When you lit roman candles and cherry bombs it was never choreographed to one of the dopest groups out of Europe. So instead of being like the grimey scarborough kids take notes from the Zdarlight vid from Digitalism.

Hyphy Clyde

Hyphy this, Hyphy that, it looks like it's more than riding the yellow bus. Meet Clyde Carson, his bubbling single "2 Step" is gaining that energy. Here's a look at a DVD clip of his track "Hood Stomp".

Various Reasons to Be Hot!

MIMS is all over the place touring on his bus. Touching Toronto last week he was able to stop by the Ampd Mobile Studios(Formerly Indian Motorcycle) @ King & Peter for a limited Studio Session where the young girls screamed so loud that's the only sound their camera phone recorded. He also was able to speak to some kids about overcoming obstacles in achieving their goals. Damn I was inspired and I'm mid-20s!

To leave with some visuals here's the T.I.W.I.H Remix featuring Sr. One Blood & Mr. Ghetto Story.

This Is Why I'm Hot REMIX (feat. Junior Reid & Cham)

In hindsight, I think they should have got some dancing lessons from Rockers.

Rock Solid!

Things are starting to pick up for Mims, you know they're gona ride the T.I.W.I.H. train. We've heard a lot of rappers try to take it the rock route and usually hit the road block. I'm not mad at this one. Purple Popcorn is providing the noise for the remix. Check Out The Vid!

It looks like he's gonna be touching the T-Dot in Mid April too. We'll be keeping you posted. in the meantime take in a mixtape.

Commenting Begins...

I was watching this live.. and a couple things ran thru my mind.
And considering it was K's b-day and his american album release I was just happy for the guy.

Born & Raised

Take this video from vet rap group Point Blank for their "Born & Raised in the Ghetto". It takes a really interesting look at government housing's development from the early 1950's. Little known fact, Regent Park's housing complexes were used as the standard for community housing across North America.
Voila:


need more Point Blank?

Lobsters for Tacos

Just got some amazing news. The team over at Half Life Records in Halifax are jumpin ship for 6 dates confirmed including SXSW in the same region. This should be a great year for these guys. I'm expecting a Juno for Classified. Not to mention the work being put in by The IV League, JC (the teacher), J-Bru & Mic B.

Here's the dates:

• 3/11 - Kansas City MO
• 3/13 - San Antonio TX - @ Kingston Tycoon Black
• 3/14 - Austin TX (SXSW festival) @ Zero Degrees
• 3/17 - Los Angeles CA
• 3/21 - Sacramento CA
• 3/22 - Salt Lake City UT

I'm sure they'll be feeling fine.

Make It Rain on These Hoes

The irony is R. Kelly 'making it rain'. And is the new drink of choice going to be Alize Ruby? Enjoy!

Classic Ice Cube

Remember this shit!!!


I need a jerry curl.



CUBE!!!

We had him in Montreal about a week back!! People need to know.... Cube is Hip-Hop
Heres a link to some piks... he still has it.

Currency Exchange

Maybe I'm just on some euro vibes because I watch soccer religiously, but many UK or European acts slide thru the North American radar. Will Lily be a M.I.A. or Coldplay?

One of the strongest outputs coming from Canada in the 'street' community has been our DJs. Blend for Blend we are smashing other countries. or at least our southern neighbours. Team Canada is making it happen for their namesake country, and taking it beyond and addressing real issues. Enjoy!
