Video: Perfeck Strangers – Ghetto

Veteran Toronto emcees Dan-e-o and Promise are now tackling the world of music as a tandem. It’s easy to say that Perfeck Strangers are an unlikely pair, but when listening to their music you would think they have been rhyming together for years.

This track is also available on Urbnet Underground Hip Hop Vol 7 or you can purchase this on iTunes

Video: D-Sisive – No More Words

‘No More Words‘ is off of D-Sisive‘s, ”Run With The Creeps” album and was directed by Harv for 235films.

Download: D-Sisive – Ray Charles feat. King Reign (MP3s + WAVs)

Streamed this the other day, now here’s the MP3s as well as WAVs if you want ‘em (clean and dirty versions).

Step right up ladies and gentlemen… and welcome to the crazy world of D-Sisive’s Vaudeville.

D-Sisive is a one man music machine cruising to the hum of his own engine. After last year’s triumphant return to the hip-hop limelight with both his Polaris Prize nominated gem Let The Children Die, and his second classic full length of 2009, the acclaimed Jonestown, one would think the accomplished Toronto MC would be content to rest on his ever-expanding laurels. Not D-Sisive. The enigmatic one is back – and this time taking things to an entirely new level with the epic Vaudeville.
