The Raptors will not start the 2020-21 season in Toronto, that’s certain. With Canada yet to open its borders to the United States and the word on the street being that plans are underway to have the season begin as soon as Dec. 22, there is no way enough will change over a month’s time […]
Drake’s birthday is today, October 24th—a bit of OVO trivia I’m particularly well aware of because it also happens to be my birthday. But while Drake and I may both be Scorpios, that’s unfortunately where me and my birthday bro’s similarities end. Because when it comes to birthdays, nobody parties like Drizzy, who somehow manages to find a […]
If anyone’s got an informed opinion on the current state of the music industry, it’s Zane Lowe. The New Zealand-born DJ-turned-host certainly has the CV for it: he’s renowned for his intimate one-on-ones with the world’s biggest artists (first on BBC Radio 1, then on Apple Music’s Beats 1) and is currently the global creative director of Apple Music. So […]
LB Spiffy is having a hell of a year—and, unlike most of us, it’s not because of the Rona. The 19-year-old rapper, hailing from Toronto’s Jane and Finch area (the stomping ground of scene fixtures Pressa and Friyie) is on a tear of category-defining collaborations and curating a catalog of crazy, fresh music videos. It’s […]
He tried it. He couldn’t fight it. Now, five years after ditching the Toronto music industry to post up in the wilds of Vancouver, k-os wants to get back into the man he used to be. Kind of. Today, the Canadian hip-hop vet drops “Supernovas,” a tailfeather-shaking slab of disco-pop produced by Toronto electronic duo MSTRKRFT. After resurfacing […]
“When I was 11, I turned 13, because I don’t fuck with 12.” That’s how “Harriet,” the latest video from Pressa, starts—and the sentiment probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise to anyone who’s followed the Toronto rapper’s career to date. The rising MC’s origin story includes his childhood best friend getting killed by […]
After capturing the world’s attention in March with his debut single “Stay Alive,” Toronto’s Mustafa (a.k.a. Mustafa The Poet) is back with a music video for his new track “Air Forces.” Check it out above. Built around samples of a Sudanese tribal chant—a nod to Mustafa’s own roots—the serene, nearly pastoral track sees the 23-year-old Muslim poet and […]
After generating a healthy amount of buzz with last year’s The Swagged Out Pedestrian, Swagger Rite hasn’t let his foot off the gas in 2020, continuing to drop new tracks at a breakneck pace. He’s released his latest, “Heart Broke Rockstar Sh*t,” today, along with an aptly lovelorn video. Watch it above. The new track sees Swagger venture […]
It is the elephant in the room, the question that will hover over the Raptors’ off-season until there’s something definitive: Will Masai Ujiri remain in Toronto beyond the 2019-20 season? Over the course of his tenure with the franchise, he has helped raise the Raptors from drudges of their existence as perpetual cellar dwellers to […]
Becoming an NBA champion is a remarkable achievement. Since the league merged with the ABA in 1976, there have been a grand total of 15 different franchises that have claimed the coveted Larry O’Brien trophy. Forever is inescapable, and the Toronto Raptors earned a place in history that no one can ever take away. Ask […]
