The year is 2042. You wake up, dress your better-looking avatar in its metaverse fit for the day, and head to the virtual boardroom. At work, your mind wanders to date ideas that could rekindle the spark with your robot partner. Maybe you’ll take the hyperloop to L.A. to catch the Raptors-Lakers game; it’s just a half-hour from […]

These cathartic reflections become even more pronounced on the latter half of The Forever Story, which also finds JID flexing a more refined vocal pocket he says he’s been working on for a while now.  “I had to get a singing coach,” JID reveals when we talk about the melodies he’s perfected on another standout […]

The term “royalty” has reemerged into the pop-culture zeitgeist, removed from Eurocentric fairytales and the archaic confines of the monarchy and redefined as an attainable reference point for the everyday person that yearns for their little bit of grandiosity.

The five stages showcased a solid lineup of […]

“This is the most important night of my life,” Drake told the sold-out Toronto crowd at the kick-off concert for his October World Weekend festival on Thursday night. He’s the biggest artist in the world, so you’d imagine he’s had many Important Nights™, but it didn’t sound like he was hyperbolizing. The show, dubbed “All Canadian North Stars,” […]

In the mercenary world of professional sports, it’s rare to see a local kid rock his hometown’s uniform. Rarer still if that sport is soccer and that hometown is the Greater Toronto Area, which hasn’t really been known for its footy scene. Until now, that is. At 30, Jonathan Osorio has a career that sounds […]

Not even a seventh wave of COVID could stop hundreds of thousands of people from descending upon la belle province’s capital for this year’s Festival d’été de Québec (FEQ). Billed as Canada’s largest outdoor musical event, it took over Quebec City for 12 days of wildly diverse programming. The final weekend of the fest, which we attended, […]
