Things don’t seem to be slowing down for pop sensation Tate McRae. The 17-year-old Calgary native was recently announced as Apple Music’s Up Next artist for this month, making her the fourth Canadian to be featured and joining a roster of talented artists like Daniel Caesar, Megan Thee Stallion, Jesse Reyez, and Billie Eilish. This, after […]
Culture and vibes. If Kazeem Kuteyi had a catchphrase, this would be it. It’s been sort of a running joke between him and his friends for years—a phrase fit for many occasions but most importantly, just something fun to yell at each other across the crowded dancefloors of yore. But beyond the ribbing, there’s not […]
This Tuesday, the beloved Brooklyn rapper Bobby Shmurda finally came home after serving nearly six years behind bars. And like his fellow GS9 member Rowdy Rebel, Bobby did it in style. While Rebel stepped out with Off-White Air Jordans and iced out chains gifted from Young Thug, Shmurda upped the ante. Not only did Shmurda […]
Over the last calendar year, Karena Evans has been shaping the future of TV on the low. Sure, her biggest acclaim before she started this trek through the television landscape was her work with Drake, but over the last few years, the Toronto-born 25-year-old director/actor has put her stamp on a number of series.

PJ Tucker is an NBA veteran in the midst of his 10th season. He’s carved out a reputation on the floor as a lockdown defender and a reliable three-point shooter for the Houston Rockets in recent years. But for many casual fans, Tucker’s reputation as the NBA’s sneaker king precedes his effective play during the […]
When Jamal Burger, Christian Epistola, and Mac Madrigal were growing up in and around downtown Toronto, sneakers meant a lot. For Madrigal they were what his older brother wore, and whatever his older brother wore, he thought must be dope. For Epistola they were a status symbol, a way to establish an identity among kids […]
We don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s never too late to reinvent yourself. Just take it from Briony Douglas. The Toronto-based photographer, visual artist, and director—whose work has caught the attention of high-end fashion labels and sneaker brands alike with its eye-popping mix of surrealism and pop culture—says she only truly began […]
Freddie Gibbs has been waiting for this moment. “This,” of course, could refer to a number of things: his first Grammy nomination, which he earned for his Alchemist-produced album Alfredo; a major label deal with Warner Records he’s finally comfortable with; or the ability to stop grinding for just one second and appreciate all the […]
