The Godfather of Canadian Hip-Hop is back with a brand new tune! Last time around when him and Rich Kidd linked up on "Gladiators", I wanted a verse from the homie Rich Kidd badly. This satisfies the craving. "Born in Toronto", announced yesterday, is a tune where Maestro and Rich Kidd go off talking about the city their from.
"Since I be the first out Toronto, male rappers ain't allowed to wear skirts in Toronto" Maestro states in the track. This isn't the only quotable either. My first concert ever was a Maestro concert, so he has a lot to do with why I'm a fan of hip-hop to begin with. Take in the Godfather, Maestro Fresh Wes' new banger featuring Rich Kidd and turn it up! Let me know your thoughts below.
Remember when this joint dropped last year? "Born In Toronto". A monumental moment. The pioneer of Canadian hip-hop and one of this generations favorites link up to talk about their city. Toronto. There's a certain feeling you get when you enter the city, being from London I know that feeling well. The diversity, the aura the city gives off, the skyline; you can't go one day in Toronto without seeing something new and innovative. I once talked with a homie from the city about it, and he said "when New York hit their hundredth year, that's when they really starting shaping what it was as a city. Toronto is on it's hundredth year, imagine how much we can change an inspire moving forward. The city is filled with life and everyday people are pushing their potential to it's limits. I can't wait to see where the city is in another twenty years". So true. Going back and forth, Maestro and Rich Kidd let you know about Toronto. All eyes are on Toronto musically and both of them said it best, "in the 80's outsiders used to sleep on Toronto, now they all want heat from Toronto/ now they all want beats from Toronto, but they can't get em' cheap from Toronto".
