CBC’s getting ready to do its Hip Hop Summit… my girls Garvia Bailey and Sarah Liss are heavily involved in the project and working very very hard to make sure it’s a great experience. Radio 2 is using its regular “O Canada” feature to um… feature some Canadian hip hop greats like Maestro Fresh Wes. Here’s that piece, which I wrote, voiced and produced.
I hosted and produced Big City Small World for the second time. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Garvia Bailey.
Have a listen!
Going back into Canadian music history has me learning things…for example I had no idea about the highly political artists living in downtown Toronto…how they were experimenting (musically) with artists who immigrated from all over the world.
That tiny fact made it in to this feature I wrote, voiced and produced here – remember the song Rise Up???
