The 9th Anniversary of blog and radio show The Come Up Show will pair up with The Hustle tonight to celebrate the new album from Toronto’s Blake Carrington who has just released his LP, photo book, and short film entitled Failure.

It’s been an emotional and challenging past 4-years for Blake Carrington, while raising a young family as a single father, Blake has continued to push forward with his music and overall creative passion. Between Toronto and Los Angeles over the past few years, Blake was able to see first hand the work ethic of US artists and business people he met while in Los Angeles, and combine that with his drive and energy as a buzzing Toronto artist, to bring together his current team to execute a tri-media project surrounding Failure.

Toronto singer/rapper Mack Davis will also appear giving a look at some new music, and Brampton based singer K. Forest will give a first look at his live music that has recently received positive coverage (NOW Magazine’s R&B One’s To Watch) and drawn comparisons to soon to be stadium filler Bryson Tiller. UK based alt-R&B singer Cherisha Etnel will kick-off the evening, as she will appear a week later during Canadian Music Week.

EVENT: Oraltorio – A Theatrical Mixtape feat. MOTION & DJ L’Oqenz (April 29th – May 12th)

rez | Events | Monday, April 25th, 2016

Oraltorio

Two legends in the game connect for what looks to be a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience. From what I can tell it’s like the one-woman-show meets hip-hop. And you know you can’t have hip-hop without the DJ. Really looking forward to this one even though I guess I don’t qualify for the youth price anymore. Gawd damnit!

The theatrical run starts this Friday so get your tickets now and peep the full breakdown below. Shouts to the queens!

Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape, gives rhythm to silenced voices as part of The RISER Project 2016

Written by Motion

Directed by Mumbi Tindyebwa

Produced by MotionLive Collective

April 11, 2016, TORONTO – MotionLive Collective is pleased to present the world premiere of Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape as part of The RISER Project 2016. The RISER Project, the collaborative producing model for independent theatre, returns to the Theatre Centre (1115 Queen St W) for the second time this Spring, Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape runs April 29 – May 12, 2016 (opening April 30).

Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape is a coming of age story that traces the personal and collective journey of Northside-born girls as they grapple with identity, migrate through their histories, and manifest their lineages through ancient, contemporary, and Afro-futuristic soundscapes; finding the multi-layered voices of the B Girl and the DJ, as the traditional storyteller and drummer are reborn in their beats and rhymes.

The piece is a multidisciplinary insight into how women’s voices – musical and otherwise – have been silenced. Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape is a spoken word opera that remixes theatre, music and spoken word, bringing together a piece as insightful as it is entertaining. The piece riffs on music, race, gender, culture, memory, otherness, resistance, ritual, silence, survival and inheritance through its two characters, exploring the historical silencing of Black and women’s voices, and the intertwined revolutions and resistance signified by music and oral culture in the African Diaspora.

Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape is written and performed by playwright, poet and emcee MOTION and composed/mixed by DJ, composer and beat maker L’Oqenz. It is directed by Mumbi Tindyebwa.

Oraltorio: a Theatrical Mixtape is made possible by Toronto Arts Council, Ontario Arts Council and Canada Council for the Arts.
