What a pleasant surprise this was to wake up to; Slakah The Beatchild collaborated with Toronto songstress Ayah to bring us their latest song Keep Up. A nine minute and twenty eight second pleasure for our ears, this isn’t the same R&B/Soul music we have come to expect from Slakah and Ayah, Keep Up has an old school garage sound and just a few lyrics like “catch me if you can” sprinkled throughout the song. I love it and I’m curious to know what you think. Check out the song below on bandcamp and if you like support by purchasing it.
When we can, we love giving music away for free simply for the pure love and desire to spread real music, uninfluenced by a label, industry or pop culture, but if you like this one, please purchase it, thank you.
I wouldn’t expect back to back music video releases for HYFR and Take Care but that’s what happened. Covering Gil Scott Heron’s Take Care, Drake recruited Rihanna for the 2011 single. Check out the video below.
Just released Drake’s new music video for HYFR featuring Lil Wayne from the album Take Care. Directed by Lil X in Miami, Drake chose to get re-bar mitzvah’d as a recommitment to the Jewish Religion. Cameos from the YMCMB/OVO crew, T-Minus and other. Check it out below.
You might have heard of the incident that happened at the Young Jeezy show last night at the Sound Academy in Toronto. The exact details are not confirmed yet from the authorities and I don’t want to talk about the rumours that are being said on twitter. Regardless Jeezy is in London, Ontario tonight and ready to give us a great show. If you don’t have your tickets yet you can get them at the door or holler at Jon Lines 226 235 4637.

We posted the Reform School Mixtape a couple of months ago when it was released. I was lucky enough to attend the release party at Gladstone Hotel and Tona just released the recap video today. He also uploaded the full tape on bandcamp for your listening enjoyment. With production from producers like Boi-1da, Rich Kidd, and features from artists like Shad, Kardinal Offishall, JD Era, this is definitely something you need to have on deck this summer.
This was an amazing concert that I won’t forget. The city showed a lot of love for Richie Blackz performance at the Wale Ambition tour at the London Music Hall. Check out the footage below.
Masillion, Ohio emcee Stalley just released his mixtape “Savage Journey To The American Dream”.
