First introduction to Drew Ebanks – sports writer and hoops head, who’s translated that love of the game into a nice viral show profiling the game from a Toronto perspective. In this first episode he hooks up with The Mega’s own Cory Joseph who currently plays for the San Antonia Spurs.
With this rendition, I wanted to embody the many things that this time of this specific year has to offer, which includes christmas, feel good music, astrology, and supposedly the beginning of the end of the world all rolled into one. So I decided to do my own R&B rendition of the hit TV show “The Big Bang Theory” which I sang and produced myself. I also thought to myself “how can I make a video to this?” and then as I was learning the motion graphics program “after effects” to create my own logo, I got the idea that I should just create a full on motion graphics lyrics video which takes place in space. It only makes sense right? So for the past couple weeks I’d been studying the program and researching information on the universe and this is what I came up with. Hope you enjoy it 🙂

The latest appearance since the amazingly hilarious “Rhyme O’Clock” video with the Wordburglar, Toronto rapper More Or Les gets serious with “Big Sugar”, the first video from his 2012 album “Mastication.” Drawing from the documentary of the same name, this song explores the dark history and modern power of the world’s reigning sugar cartels, and our relation to refined sugar as we continue to over-consume it in post-industrial First World nations. Filmed at the “Museum of Indulgence” exhibition at Harbourfront Centre, this video features original sugar-based art work from Montreal artist Shelley Miller — http://www.shelleymillerstudio.com/info.php.

Jhyve kicks lyrical and melodic about his past, present and future Christmases.
“Good Christmas” takes us through memories of Jhyve’s Christmas years past, and the struggles of the holidays going forward. As Jhyve describes it:
“This song is really personal to me, and will probably touch anyone who misses Christmas days as they were. Most change is for the better. But sometimes, you can’t help but miss what once was.”
The song’s cool, soulful sound was produced by up and coming Toronto talent “Novembers Coldest”.
