Shouts to PJ and Dames for paying homage to someone…….while they’re still alive. Good look. The clip doubles as promo for Peter’s Fresh Start release which is on tha way too.

Directed By Sam G

Message to any upcoming artists. This is the model to follow. These guys have no American co-sign (i.e. from an established artist) and no label. Yet, they have a solid fanbase, mad love across the border, and watch how ramm it’s going to be on Friday night. The craziest thing about it is that they JUST started getting commercial radio play up here too. But that’s the joke…that’s how it’s SUPPOSED to be. You’re supposed to build your buzz and your fanbase and then let radio come to you at the right time. Everyone out here is trying to get on FLOW and G but no one knows you. Even with radio rotation you can’t get 100 people to a show in your own city of over 5 million. Backwards thinking. But I digress.
Anyways…to finish my point…Melanie Fiona, Shad, Kardi, Era (and now APB) etc…all realistic and humble paths to success. Study how they did it and are doing it. And shouts to free shows. The fact that Drake hasn’t done a free show here still irks me. Bah!

Usually I wouldn’t post up production this stripped down and short but when it’s from one of the production outfits responsible for shaping Toronto’s 90s hip-hop sound, I openly make an exception. Down 2 Erf aka production duo ‘The Twins” and emcee Mathematik gave us some of Toronto’s sickest 90s era hip-hop records: from Citizen Kane’s“Reality & Facts” and “Structure, Foundation” to “Learn 2 Earn” and “Rhyme Training” with Mathematik. I have no idea whether they’re releasing new material or even coming back together; I just happened to randomly stumble on this soundcloud page where you can hear several other beat snippets that were recently posted. Hopefully we see/hear more from these guys in the future.. meantime, enjoy.
