Red Bull’s got you covered tomorrow night. Shouts to the fam but it’s too bad a Toronto artist isn’t the headliner especially considering the title of the event. Just call it something else then…

Either way…with Shi, Allie and KJ on the bill, the city’s definitely set to rep kinda lovely.

Red Bull Sound Select Presents: Toronto is a new, monthly live music showcase that highlights some of the city’s most exciting emerging artists. Throughout the year, the showcase will visit different career-launching Toronto venues and will introduce a fresh line up of artists local to the GTA.

Manifesto has curated the 2nd event in the series, showcasing Shi Wisdom, a l l i e & KJ, headlined by TDE’s own SZA.

Join us at Tattoo on March 26, 2014 for the March installment of Red Bull Sound Select Presents: Toronto. Tickets $3 at the door with RSVP here (first-come, first-served). $10 without RSVP. All door proceeds support the local, opening artists.

– 19+
– Doors open at 8pm.

Flyer says it all.

Hey Guys! So, this is the 2nd last cover I’ll be doing for awhile prior to dropping a string of music videos! Beyonce is totally one of my absolute favs and I really wanted to do this song. 

With me is my good friend Joel Anderson who is singing. 

*** Please excuse the loud key sounds. Unfortunately I had to mic the room that day so it picked up…Hope you like. Be sure to share, like, & most of all subscribe! Got some great stuff coming your way soon! Love, Andreena 🙂

After its debut in August of 2012, “Aneemah’s Spot” gets a 5-show run in Feb. starting with 2 shows tomorrow in Mississauga. Dope! Really hope I can make it out to one of these shows.

Meanwhile, in order to help promote the production, music director extraordinaire DJ L’oqenz put together a mixtape of all-Canadian chunes to help spread the word. Tracklist under the hood!

And if that wasn’t enough…L also posted up the original music produced for the play.

Produced by: niteowlnaps aka L’Oqenz for Aneemah’s Spot

Aneemah’s Spot is a riveting dramatic duet set in the millennial MegaCity. Written by Motion, and directed by Charles Officer, the tale follows two childhood friends struggling to cope with the fall out of a tragedy. Starring Amanda Parris and Shomari Downer, the award-winning production features a stylistic sound-scape by DJ L’Oqenz that pulsates like the city that birthed it.

It all goes down this Friday: Rich. Tona. Bomb. A be vision. Geez.

I’m out of town, so gna miss this, but hopefully you don’t.

Toronto’s finest rhyme spitters Rich Kidd, Tona, and Adam Bomb have teamed up with Bryan Espiritu of Toronto based clothing line TheLegendsLeague to form Naturally Born Strangers, the audio component to the TheLegendsLeague’s F/W 13 collection avaialble   at Livestock in Toronto (116 Spadina Ave.), at retailers across Canada, and online at  www.thelegendsleague.com.

On Friday January 31st, they will be taking over Toronto’s Mod Club (722 College St.) for a special concert and pop-up shop showcasing the highly-popular new product line. In addition to the fall line, LL is designing a special capsule exclusively available at the show. The event will be sponsored by NOW Toronto, Noisey, Hip Hop Canada, and Manifesto.

The full project, entirely produced by Rich Kidd who is closing out a landmark year in his buzzing career, is avaible in full via Audio Mack and has already received wide coverage by the likes of Complex Magazine, Mass Appeal, Onsmash and plenty others.

With Espiritu at the creative helm, the clearly-defined visual aestethic of this project is explained below:

 

  Naturally Born Strangers represents those born and raised different who don’t associate themselves with the common communal circles. It’s a proclamation of pride in the power of being disliked, unwanted or obscure, weird or foreign to the norm. It’s for the stranger and the more strange, the new community of outcasts, the antithesis to the neighbourhood and the cynics of its circles. NBS is the umbrella title to those influenced by much, deterred by nothing and unknown the world over.

It’s a reflection of our societies vision of “normal”. The queen is represented to create familiarity but has been tainted to identify the strange. It’s fuck government, fuck the system, fuck money, fuck fame, fuck art.”

– Bryan Espiritu & James McGurk of TheLegendsLeague.
