Toe Jam.

This is one of the tracks on the forthcoming album Trill O.G. from Bun B. It leaked a while ago, so you might think that you have already heard it. However, this is the final album release version.

Put It Down – Bun B featuring Drake.

Trill O.G.

afrotoe — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 00:31:37 +0000

Bun B’s new album Trill O.G. is being release this Tuesday. This album will be an instant classic, and I already know that it won’t ever be leaving one of the six CD slots in my Range Rover. Features include Drake, Trey Songz, Tupac, Yo Gotti, Gucci Mane, T-Pain, Young Jeezy, Twista, Raekwon and Slim Thug. Make sure you support the artists and BUY this one. Check out this recent interview with Fader TV to hear all about the album from the man himself.

This is his 3rd solo studio album, therefor Trill O.G. is also a play on the word Trilogy. Get it?

Drake x Nardwuar.

If you’re viewing this from Canada then you are probably already familiar with Nardwuar. If not, he is a television and radio personality known for his sometimes awkward interviews and extremely unique personality. Drake was recently in Vancouver to perform and sat down with Nardwuar in the studio for this extremely entertaining interview. I have had the chance to meet Nardwuar several times and all I can say is that there is NOBODY like him. Watch this.

Drake Live – Video.

I made the post Drake Live over a week ago, immediately after he performed here in Montreal. I shared all of the photos from the event, but I totally forgot about a video that I had on my Blackberry. This is a short clip from when he first came on stage at Metropolis. Watch as he addresses the (totally stoked) crowd. It was very obvious that Drizzy has love for this city.

In My Hood – BTS.

You probably are not familiar with the rapper P. Reign from Toronto but, after seeing him perform live last Sunday when he opened in Montreal for Drake, I am confident you will be familiar soon. My personal favorite song (from him) is his current single In My Hood – which they recently shot the music video for. Check out this behind the scenes (BTS) footage from the shoot, and look out for the cameo from Drizzy himself.

Support Canadian talent.

Drake Live.

I attended the Drake concert last night at Metropolis in Montreal. The sold out crowd loved every minute of it. The opening act P. Reign shut it down, and Drake killed it. The live band was a really nice touch, and the live performance was on point. If you weren’t there – you missed out. I got to go backstage after the show to meet the entire OVO crew. Check my photos. Video coming soon.

Ottawa.

I spent Friday night in Ottawa, Ontario. I have heard people refer to it as “the city that always sleeps”, so I really was not expecting much. However, I actually did enjoy myself there – even if the stay was VERY brief. The city is quite visually appealing, but I guess it is the fact that it is a government city is what causes it to be generally dull. You can sort of piece together my night with these photos.

Toe Jam.

As I am seeing Drake live tonight for the first time ever, it only makes sense for this weeks “Toe Jam” song to be from him. His verse was actually left out of the album release version of Aston Martin Music but check out this blend that includes it along with his hook. This shit is the truth!

Interview With DJ B-Do.

afrotoe — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 02:27:54 +0000

I decided to record a Skype chat with my homie Bradley Davis aka DJ B-Do. I asked him a bunch of questions that I already knew the answer to while he was eating a plate of chicken and rice – needless to say this was totally casual, but I thought y’all might be interested in getting this look from behind the scenes. If you aren’t already familiar with the dude, he has produced for Pimp C, Bun B of UGK, Lupe Fiasco, Scarface, Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, Gucci Mane, Yo Gotti, Short Dawg, E-40 & more! He actually produced the single Countin’ Money of the forthcoming Bun B album Trill OG – which will be released on August 3rd, 2010.

Young Money/Cash Money in Los Angeles.

afrotoe — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 23:31:43 +0000

The whole YMCMB crew was in Los Angeles a while back for the BET Awards weekend. Their official cameraman Derick G followed them around (mostly Birdman) to capture this footage. I don’t know what more to say. Just watch it.
