The Work - Wale
This video makes me want my dreads back. Also, I’m not the only one who puts out music videos for mixtape tracks! For some reason, though, default stream is set to 240p (I didn’t even KNOW there was a 240p). Audio (and obviously video) quality is way better in HD.
So you know how EVERYONE knows how Andre 3000 is my favourite rapper, EVER? Well today, Hometeam music put me over the moon with this incredible mixtape compiling the best of the best 3 Stacks verses, including some rarities and unreleased bars! Click through for linkage!

Fire - Lupe Fiasco
Who’s excited for the new Lupe tape tonight? I am.
Today is gonna be so hard…
… but so very worth it. It’s my official debut to the Toronto stage making this the third country I’ve been honoured the opportunity to play an official gig in (I do my thing wherever I go). I’ve torn up the stage a couple times in the last year plus that I’ve been here but this is the first me-centric thing and I’m excited.
But I’ve got a lot of work to do. Courtesy of the most disorganised promoter I’ve ever worked with, I’ve got to run around ALL DAY tomorrow trying to score some equipment and I’ve got to carry my guitar in the event that he DOES get me an amp (seriously, I’m playing at a lounge with NO amps). I’ve got waaay too much to do tomorrow and I’m not looking forward to it.
Still, being back on stage again will be so worth it. So here’s the rundown of what my set tomorrow will consist of:
- Some jams from invinciblemusic that you know and love
- A brand new track that I’m debuting from The Phoebe EP
- Me, potentially, on tambourine AND guitar duty (if Mr. Man gets me an amp)
- The mighty Jason Florentino on lead guitar (so worth it)
- My sweet outfit that Alex has been working on for me
- Video duty by the fantastic Meghan!
- Photo duty by Aanchal as well as, from what I gather, Arslan AND Amanda
Should be fun times. Wish me luck!
So I want this.

Rock (Step One, Step Two) - World Famous Paul-C
It just occurred to me that I put out my mixtape, like, two weeks ago and I haven’t posted any of the finished songs! So here’s another personal favourite. Second jam I wrote and played guitars for!
