MAXELL TAPES WEEK 4 “SHINE” THE DEMO VERSION

Posted on Sunday, April 4th, 2010

This song has three versions to it. This one you are about to hear, The Spic Who Sat by The Door version and the unreleased remix. All are different and have their own vibe but this one stays close to me due to it’s classic feel. Inspired by Mary J and Smiff and Wessun’s classic collabo “I Love You” remix. [...]

Posted on Monday, March 29th, 2010

This track has always been a favourite for me. From the intro to the beat, again produced by catalist, to the emceeing always felt like some classic ish. Raw Shit features Sibbs Roc who was also featured on the MINDGRENADE EP. After recording this we went on to write a full album under the name “The Truth” Unfortunately we never [...]

MAXELL TAPES WEEK 2 – HERE WE ARE

Posted on Sunday, March 21st, 2010

I heard this cd “Cut & Paste Soul” by Odetta on myspace and this beat had me from jump! The soulful vibe to it had me humming the hook right away so I wrote a quick something to reflect the time. Living in Toronto in my one bedroom apt looking out the window thinking how we all want so [...]

Check this!! The Great Escape Review on KevinNottingham

Posted on Thursday, February 4th, 2010

“It’s extremely unfair to place emcees in boxes based on the projects they put out. Some of them lean towards certain genres but this kind of thinking makes rappers appear one sided when majority of them have many layers. And Louwop, a Toronto native, is one of those types that have more than one floor to expose. So placing him [...]

Posted on Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

I’ve been a movie junkie since a kid. Some of my fondest memories are watching movies with my brothers during summer break. We would re-enact scenes and half of our dialogue and slang can be credited to many scripts. But every now and then you come across a movie that shuts you up and makes you watch. This film is [...]

READ THIS!! RULE BY SECRECY BY JIM MARRS

Posted on Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

Inspiration comes from everywhere, anything and everything. One of my favourite books due to its gripping information is Rule by Secrecy by Jim Marrs. I read Rule by Secrecy years ago and always share it with people who are interested in alternate sources of information. Writers like Marrs inspire me to dig deeper than what is at the surface. [...]
