I recently came across this extremely dope artist from Toronto, Ontario. I thought I'd share, he really deserves the attention.

( first 2 albums ), Big L, Showbiz and A.G., Saukrates, Biz Markie, McLyte, EPMD, DEL, Casual, Pharcyde, Souls of Mischief, KRS-ONE, D Nice, Special Ed, Chubb Rock, Mobb Deep, Helta Skelta, Smiff n Wessun, LONS, Chuck D, Flavour Flav, Lord Finesse, ( Remember 2 kings in a Cypher?.. man.. whatever happened to them cats? ) Rough House Survivors, Grand Puba, Brand Nubian, C.L. Smooth, ( whatabout Yall So Stupid... loved them dudes ) Q-Tip, Phife, Peace 586, Super C, LPG, Dynamic Twins, P.I.D., Nas, Son of Bazerk, 3rd Bass, Slum Village.

There's an obvious Pharoahe Monch influence in the way he spits in this track, gotta love it. And here is a short BIO of him on YouTube here.

A bit too erratic for my tastes, but he has ability.
I don't know what made it not so enjoyable; the beat or his delivery. I'll keep my eye on him. Good to see at least one reasonably decent MC come out of Toronto.
