Warrior in a Wheelchair
The Winter Olympics energized the community and had Londoners feeling pride at the accomplishments of our amazing athletic heroes. We wanted to welcome them home with a huge celebration in February but unfortunately things couldn’t quite come together then.

D-sisive, Legendary MC?
I saw D-sisive at the Toronto Freedom Festival earlier this year when I was there covering the event for DOPEfm. Canadian hip-hop legend Saukrates was performing and he brought D-sisive out on stage with him. They have a song together, “Wednesday, the remix” that will be appearing on the new Saukrates album “Season One” and…

D-sisive, In The Right Place and Time
D-sisive got compared to Eminem a lot in the early stages of his career. I don’t think it was exactly a fair comparison. Eminem tried to be shocking with his material. D-sisive on the other hand was just your straight battle MC. Of course, they both were able to turn a phrase to have audiences…

The students would have all asked, “What happened?” and I’d end up sharing another skateboard injury story. But I thought I’d share the story with…

Visual Tour Clark Wright C.A.
I love finding new places to go for a trail run. It’s fun to bring my camera along with me to present these Visual Tours as well. I’ve been running for months already this year but I have been hitting the same trails I shared with you already. That was until early this week when…

What It Takes to Make A Top 100 Rap Song List
This is a guest post from Bea of Hard Knock Radio. Many hip-hop fans, writers, and online publications like to make lists of the best hip-hop songs. Doing so can be quite the challenge, however. This endeavour will take dedication, perseverance, and even blood, sweat and tears. You might think that to be an exaggerated…
