L releases his sophomore full length “Hear No Evil, Music To My Ears” for audience consumption.
With the release of his highly anticipated debut LP, Hear No Evil | Music To My Ears, Toronto emcee 12th Letter, formerly known as L the 12th Letter, embarks on a 13-track journey that has been 5 years in the making. The audibly cinematic project enlists the narration of world-renowned poet Ian Kamau and a 5-piece orchestra under the musical direction of Andrew Ford to successfully create an inventive and cohesive album.
Executively produced by DJ Merciless, 12th Letter pays tribute to the city of Toronto by incorporated featured artists like songstress Andreena Mill and emcees Blake Carrington and Symmetry of the Shing-Shing Regime. Hear No Evil | Music To My Ears mandates a soulful vibe backed by powerful instrumentals, complex concepts and outstanding lyrical deliveries. A consistent trend on this album is the call for self-elevation, evident on the tracks “Music To My Ears” and “The XIIth Insight”, both tracks that uniformly thrust 12th Letter’s album objectives to the forefront. The lead single of the album, “Off With Their Heads”, and “Real MC” incorporates the boom-bap rap styling of the 90s and the poignant messages that push rap music forward. Meanwhile, “Higher”, which features Irish vocalist Frank Ryan, and “Smiling Faces” cater equally to a pop-rock crowd as well as a jazz-funk audience, allowing 12th Letter to shine in an alternative soundscape.
Heavy drum laced tracks, violin melodies and choir vocals string together the common themes of this album. Hear No Evil | Music To My Ears is an admission of the struggles and fears of an independent artist, with the vivaciousness to overcome and rise above.

Adversaree & Phat Tony bring to you Tongues Uv Machetes 2: Enter Simon Barz Sinister the EP. Once, again, Adversaree is back on the series of the TUM, but this time he brought beat smith/producer Phat Tony (CampX, F.A.T. Thursday) as the EP’s chief/only producer. The theme, this time around, is gathered around Simon Bar Sinister of the Underdog cartoon series from the 1960s. TUM2 promises dagger-style bars and villainous verses that lay over the street-thumping, hip-hop boom-bap of Phat Tony’s production. The Simon persona was taken by Adversaree as the villain in TUM2, this time around. Sit back and enjoy an EP that is for the heads, as well as the lyrical listeners. Once, again, we cannot THANK YOU enough for your proven and constant support of what we’re doing, as hiphop citizens. The appreciation is limitless!! Look out for more from Adversaree!!! Bless.
