This show was put together by Latte D Kyd to benefit Toronto Rape Crisis Centre / Multicultural Women Against Rape. We were sho' nuff keeping good company this night. Canada's current top offers, as far as hip hop goes. If any of these names are new to you, you're sleeping. Check out the link to their sites, and feed your ears.
THE BILL
(regrets from Masia One, who was much missed, but was there in spirit.)
TUNES THAT MOVED ME
Eternia's new take on Jeru's "The Bitches" had me in stitches.
Sunny D's ditty for the bike, "Leave a Little Room on the Right."
Nyceone's superhero song, brought back all those fond longings to wrap around me the strong, reassuring arms of Astroboy.
My eternal gratitude to the band that night, which consisted of John Kendrick, Jeff Burke, zAyla weedz, Michael Clark, Lai Yee Ho and Pierre Mongeon. You guys hotted up the place! This is one of the best renditions of "Butterfly" we've ever done. The crowd kept the chorus going longer than I did, and the circle of energy travelled the length of the room and back, each not feeding the next. High high high. Loving it.
