Toronto Community Housing in partnership with the Department of Athletics and Recreation at University of Toronto Scarborough has introduced a first-of-its-kind program for city youth this summer: Midnight Madness Basketball.
The pilot program brings together 70 youth aged 14 to 16 from five Toronto Community Housing communities to play basketball at the UTS athletic centre on Friday nights during the summer.
Led by Shevon Thompson and Jelani Matthew, Midnight Madness combines both physical and personal development. Before stepping on the court for basketball drills and friendly competition under the guidance of mentors, the youth take part in life-skills workshops to learn about themselves, their peers and how to access positive life-changing opportunities.
Midnight Madness is supported by the Toronto Police Service, Ascot Co-op, Concrete Roses Youth Services and the East Scarborough Boys and Girls Club.
The pilot program includes five communities this summer (Alexandra Park, Cooper Mills, Flemington Park, Kingston Galloway, Queen’s Plate), but Toronto Community Housing hopes to expand it in future to include more communities and involve both boys and girls.
To find out more, call 416-981-6300, or e-mail youth@torontohousing.ca.
Please change settings to 720p for best best viewing.

Haven’t heard from Talksick in a minute but he was always one of the nicest from the Empire crew. Nice to hear / see what is hopefully the start of a new push.

The SARS Network’s “TALKSICK” was born in Toronto, Ontario. Empire member, TalkSick, deemed ‘The Secret Weapon’ is a secret, no more! A name he acquired from being the silent lyrical killer for Empire, a group well known in the Toronto underground hip hop scene. TalkSick was one of the core members of Empire when it was put together in the year 2000.
In this video, TalkSick describes how he feels about Hip Hop music through the phrase “Deja Vu”, feeling that he has ‘been there and done that’ with rap music many times and now wants the respect he rightfully deserves. With scenes of TalkSick feeling like situations he’s going through have happened over & over, he now recognizes that it’s time to set the record straight and accomplish his goal.
“Deja Vu” is the first single off of TalkSick’s long awaited album, “The Weapon”, produced by The Quarter Inch Kings due for release this fall. “Deja Vu” is produced by The Quarter Inch Kings, mixed by PhameOne & video directed by Big Sproxx of Proletarian Music.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

pHoenix gets a dope look via Sean Armstrong’s latest single that also features Souls Of Mischief member Tajai.
Kinda feel like if they’d given her more than a hook to rock over theyd’ve been using her to her full potential tho.
“Took Control” is the lead single from Sean Armstrong’s debut album, Marble Cake Diaries. The song and video features Tajai from Souls of Mischief and pHoenix Pagliacci with production from !llmind. The video was directed, shot & edited by E Major. @djfacemusic
