I can't believe he hasn't won Canada's DMC even though he's a 2 time Scribble Jam champ (hands down). Kinda goes to show what a joke the DMC is. He was in town about 2 months ago releasing his new CD "Get Up!" and it is sooo fresh, i advise any hip-hop or even just a good music fan to pick it up!

He won every competition he ever entered in Halifax, to the point where he had to retire to give other people a chance! I agree, "Get Up" is great but to really appreciate how talented he is you just have to see him live. The guy can scratch with his feet for fata's sake!!
I'm a huge fan of Sage's lyrics, so I guess we have to disagree there. But yeah, Joe Beats is in fine form on Hope.
By the way, Del was awsome last night. I didn't really like that bar (horrible bartenders, bad sightlines), but he put on a pretty good show regardless.
