Some front-row perspective from Ritchie‘s album release a couple weeks back. I love how it just gets too hype for dude to keep filming, lol. Syke.

Nice new joint from Glenn Lewis. Really great to know that he has an official release on the way. Definitely looking forward to it. Also always wondered if “Storm” will get an official release…? I guess we’ll see…
In the meantim…via SoulBounce:
Now this is a welcome and long overdue surprise. Glenn Lewis is officially on the comeback trail with a new single and a new album on the way later this year. No, for real this time. Don’t get it twisted, Glenn hasn’t exactly been silent in the decade since his fantastic debut album, World Outside My Window, dropped. A quick search through our very own archives will find his name pop up numerous times. But after an unfortunately shelved sophomore album, various leaks and one-off singles that came and went, he’s ready to take the plunge back into the soul/R&B waters with the song “Can’t Say Love,” the first listen from his upcoming album entitled Moment of Truth. Glenn sounds as good as ever on the soulful love song written by Corey Latif Williams. This one is getting placed immediately into heavy rotation, and I suspect the rest of his album will deliver more of the same from the buzz that I’m hearing. Wrap your ears around “Can’t Say Love” and look out for Moment of Truth when it’s released on August 20th.

It’s funny because I just took in this interview with De La Soul the other day and this video totally reminded me of something Dave said (1:30 mark) about when they made the “Buddy” video. Love that that spirit is still alive and well despite all the bullsh*t that’s out there…
Anyways…some BTS jokes from tha ladies. “Soul Runner” on repeat.
Behind the scenes with “The Toddler”, aka pHoenix Pagliacci.
“Girls Love Beyonce” gets a soulful and thoughtful remake starring O’Sound as the voice of reason.

Been watching Class of ’93 since their debut and kinda feel like the duo’s (emcee KZARAW – producer Mega) potential is just sitting there waiting for more people to finally notice. Not to mention, seeing three great female Toronto emcees together on a cut is still such a frickin’ rarity, I’d even argue that their chemistry with A. Harmony and pHoenix might be worthy of a bit more official and strategic exploration (no pressure tho!).
Take in this crew’s previous releases and the formula they’re building with is pretty clear – good hops, rooted in the art’s fundamentals, and the experiences of the city they live in, with no real sign of pretense.
Honestly, it’s singles like this and this that make me miss doing OTA Live! sooo much. *tear drop*

Shouts to Rich and Junia on the beat (and placement) but maan it hurts to think how much sicker it would’ve been with Rich and Junia OVER the beat too.

Sooo…I’m dumb. I knew that was PG on the Melanie Fiona flyer for the show last night. But on it it said someone named LeiLa Dey was opening. Without thinking I just assumed someone messed up on the flyer and added PG’s picture (because maybe she was another opener) without adding her name to the titles.
Bah! No faith right?
So I bump into her last night and she set the record straight. PG now = LeiLa Dey. Got it.
Oh yea, and the video above is the reminder why you should care. Still a really dope joint! Definitely looking forward to what LeiLa’s got cooking…

A week away on a beach and come home to this all up in my timeline. Really looking forward to hearing this new ELMNT project.
ELMNT decides to unleash one more track off of his upcoming project “Stara-Nova”. Self-produced by ELMNT, RI$KS features a prominent sample originally performed by Adele, ELMNT paints a picture of an individual ready to do what it takes to reach his full potential. The Toronto native has expressed an unwillingness to release a lacklustre project and for keeping his and waiting so long offers up another free download.
“Decided to put out something new.. wrote this 8-9 months ago when I was living in my manager Jay’s basement, remember it being a weird coincidence that I got a call out of the blue that same afternoon and asked if I was interested in recording in Europe. Strange experience. Decided not to take the contract, came back with 22 euros strong & rebuilding, $hit happens. RI$K$.”
