This past September, 2011 Toronto celebrated the 5th anniversary of THE MANIFESTO. This is one of the most beautiful festivals to take place in the city; a true gathering of art, music, film, food, and culture.

This footage is from the ‘Live At The Square’ event on Sunday, Sept 25 at Dundas Square which I DJ’d.

Performers included 9th Wonder & Phonte, Zaki Ibrahim, Raekwon & JD Era, Rich Kidd, Kid Capri and Rakim, Freedom Writers, and many more..

It was definitely a historic evening.. Let me know your thoughts!

Big shouts to my brother Rich Kidd for absolutely destroying the production.. The K-OS track at the end (Astronaut), is also produced by Rich Kidd.. Stop sleeping people!!!

The title of this post pretty much sums it up.. Last Sunday Sept 20, marked history in Toronto once again as the 3rd annual Manifesto Festival took place.
I DJ’d the after party at Revival alongside DJ Hi-Tek (Reflection Eternal) & Skratch Bastid. Special guests 9th Wonder, Jeru The Damaja, Talib Kweli, Rich Kidd, Saukrates, etc. were all in the spot.. It was definitely ‘one of those nights’.  I have a ton of video from this night, which I will edit and post up soon.. In the mean time here are some pics & some of Rich Kidd & Friends’ performance, as well as Reflection Eternal performing at Nathan Phillips Square.

One of the most talented people I know.. Rich Kidd is a problem.  Musician, producer, composer, rapper, singer, and all out creative genius – you need to take in his music.  Most of you have probably already heard one of the leaks, Drake f/ Saukrates “The Search”, now take in the rest of the mixtape..!

All original Rich Kidd material and production featuring guest appearances from the dopest artists in Toronto, including Drake, Saukrates, JD Era, Tona, The Kid Famous, King Reign, K-OS, Nelly Furtado, Ayah, Theology 3, Mayhem Morearty, Shaun Boothe, Bishop Brigante, Infinite, Luu Breeze, Richie Sosa, Cali Snipes, and Andreena Mill! Billy Danze of M.O.P. and Busta Rhymes rep for south of the border, while you also get to hear some up-and-coming T.O. artists like Junia-T (of Smash Brovaz), Alkatraz, D.O. (of The Art Of Fresh), Blake Carrington, and more!
