*Click here to go back to the beginning of the countdown* *Click here to go back to #15* One week after releasing A Better Tomorrow with the Wu-Tang Clan, Ghostface Killah returned with another addition to his solo discography. 36 Seasons is another concept album similar to 2013’s Twelve Reasons To Die, as it sounds…

*Click here to go back to the beginning of the countdown* *Click here to go back to #15* The album meant to celebrate the Wu-Tang Clan’s 20th anniversary has finally come out a year after they wanted it to. A Better Tomorrow had a lot of weight on its shoulders, as the Clan had to…
Concert Review: Ghostface Killah at Rockpile East in Toronto/Scarborough, ON
Only a year after Ghostface Killah tore down the Kool Haus with five other Wu-Tang Clan members, he has returned to Toronto for a solo show. Ghostface is the one artist I’ve seen the most in concert, as I’ve seen him perform in all kinds of settings over the past five years. I’ve seen the…
Concert Review: The LOX at The Sound Academy in Toronto
Sheek Louch, Jadakiss and Styles P have each been to Toronto many times before, but this was surprisingly their first time performing here as a group.

Concert Review: Wu-Tang Clan at the Kool Haus in Toronto
There’s so much I could write about the Wu-Tang Clan; they became my all-time favourite hip-hop group when I started studying the history of rap music as a teenager, as I was too young to witness its beginnings first hand. Ever since 1993, not one year has gone by where Wu-Tang hasn’t put out an…
