Quick likkle feature on my man Tona courtesy of TheSource.com’s International Spotlight. Silverspring Crescent June 18th!!!
Hailing from Ghana Africa, Kwame Nantwi’s name, “Tona”, was given to him because of his distinctive tone of voice, which he uses not only to project his rhymes, but also a unique style that transcends the typical boundaries of the Hip hop genre.
By the time he recorded his first EP, Tona appeared in the 2004 CBC documentary Rhyme Pays: Hip Hop and the Marketing of Cool, a one hour special for CBC MARKETPLACE that discussed hip hop from a marketing standpoint. The film featured Russell Simmons, Damon Dash and was scored by producer, Agile, (Nas, Methodman). Also featured was Tona, one of three rappers invited to battle in the film, performing his original track, “Handle Your B.I.”
In 2005, Tona launched his own licensing company, Da District Entertainment, a tribute to his home district of Scarborough.
“Hip hop in Scarborough feels like the foundation of the culture to me.” says Tona, “You couldn’t go no where in our city and not interact with it some how. Even if you didn’t understand it, it wasthere – the music, the streets, the culture. I love my city for that.”
