A Tribe Called Quest founder Ali Shaheed Muhammad discussed the meaning behind the group’s sophomore studio album The Low End Theory, revealing the different definitions of the title. Speaking to Talib Kweli on his podcast People’s Party, Muhammad revealed that he and Q-Tip wanted to convey their message in a non-traditional way — a trait he and Tip shared as two people who “don’t like the conventional” and the “predictable.” He said, “We like the mystique of music, but in life. And we strive to just dig a little bit deeper.

Last week, Drake kicked off OVO Fest 2022 with a jam-packed cast of “All Canadian North Stars.” Paying tribute to Canada’s R&B and hip-hop history, Drake brought out local legends like Keshia Chanté, K-Os, Maestro Fresh Wes, Shawn Desman, Kardinal Offishall and more.

Despite selling 40 million records worldwide, making her one of the most successful Canadian artists, Furtado has maintained a low profile throughout the years. Sharing that Furtado’s music changed his life and asking fans to sing as loud as they can, Drake introduced Furtado on stage. The duo performed the 2006 hit featuring Timbaland “Promiscuous” before moving into the Canadian classic “I’m Like a Bird.” Finishing off the night Drake said, “This i...

Chance the Rapper recently discussed the video that showed the artist formerly known as Kanye West going off on him in the studio, stating that he put a lot of thought into their relationship after. Speaking on The Morning Hustle, the artist reminded listeners that the clip is “of a larger moment” and that nobody will ever get the full story. “People do take it and run with it, because I saw some people put, like, fake captions under the video to make it look like he was talking about my music or something like that, but in all honesty, it’s like, you know, this is real life. Like, I have real friends and they go through real problems,” Chano explained. He further shared that he felt as if the public “exploited a moment” that was genuine, “I try and be my most real self, you know, and...
