With uncanny lyrical skill he has been setting fire to bangin’ beats since the group’s critically acclaimed debut in 1997. In 2005 they sold over 17,000 units of their forth CD, ProIntelPro: Promote Intelligence Program, to become one of the top selling independent groups in Canadian Hip Hop History. Mentored by Public Enemy leader Chuck D, ProfessorD.us is among the next generation representing the reassertion of Hip Hop as a tool to empower and uplift all people and aid in the struggles against oppression worldwide. Respected by Hip Hop greats and globally renowned in the underground, ProfessorD.us is poised to make a major impact in 2008. His new album, THIRD WORLD WARriors Vol. 1, features remarkable lyrical prowess, tremendous beats and musicianship, and an army of noteworthy guest appearances. In addition to exciting up-and-coming Canadian talent, the album features exceptional performances by Jeru The Damaja, M-1 of dead prez and the godfather of Canadian Hip Hop, Maestro (Fresh Wes), among others. With his outstanding new album, ProfessorD.us is set to raise the bar, make Canadian Hip Hop history once again, and assert himself as a true international Hip Hop heavyweight. Global Exposure ProfessorD.us regularly performs across North America and around the world. He has toured North, Central and South America as well as West Africa and parts of Europe. This winter he will be touring throughout Southern Africa, Europe and Asia. ProfessorD.us has garnered airplay on radio stations around the world and been seen on networks as diverse as NBC, CNN, BET, CTV, MuchMusic, MuchVibe, City TV, TVO, as well as overseas on Cuban National Television, Antenne 2 (France, worldwide), Channel O (South Africa, continent wide), and GBC (Ghana, national), and many others.

Often, the industry’s ‘up and comers’ are first recognized by the established artists in their field, and are predicted to be ‘the next big thing.’ Artists such as Tupac and Jay-Z were favourites among artists before the public or record companies knew who they were. Chuck D, one of the first people to recognize Tupac’s talent, has rated The Dope Poet Society as the number one independent group in the world. The average North American may not yet have heard of ProfessorD.us, but ask Wyclef Jean, Dead Prez or Maestro, what they think and you’ll get rave reviews.

A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound*
A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound* Michael J. Doucet Abstract: One aspect of urban culture is examined to evaluate Toronto's position within the urban hierarchy, namely, the production of songs and sounds about the city. Although much music has been performed and created in Toronto over the years, and many songs have been urritten about a variety of features of life in the city, the musical images of Toronto remain largely unknown beyond its borders—even to many of the city's own residents. If Toronto is a "world-class city," the evidence for such a claim would have to be found on other dimensions than the one explored here. No one ever wrote / A single note / About Toronto. — Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster (19%) I find that lately, I'm missing old Toronto, Where bass is strong and drums are full of fire. — from the Lenny Breau song "New York City" (1987) No nation can exist by the balance sheet alone. Stories, song, dance, music, art and the rest are the lifeblood of a country, the cultural images defining a people just as surely as their geography and the gross national product. — Robert Lewis, editor of Maclean's (19%) Interestingly, though, we don't seem to have an immediately identifiable style. The last time anyone spoke about a 'Toronto Sound' [former Mayor] Alan Lamport was booting hippies out of Yorkville. Unlike a Nashville or Manchester, there isn't any one thing that makes you say 'That's Toronto' -- Bob Mackowycz, writer and broadcaster (1991) Toronto itself doesn't have a distinctive civic culture.

Multiculturalism and the De-Politicization of Blackness in Canada: the Case of Flow 93.5 Fm
MULTICULTURALISM AND THE DE-POLITICIZATION OF BLACKNESS IN CANADA: THE CASE OF FLOW 93.5 FM by Kisrene McKenzie A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Kisrene McKenzie 2009 MULTICULTURALISM AND THE DE-POLITICIZATION OF BLACKNESS IN CANADA: THE CASE OF FLOW 93.5 FM Master of Arts 2009 Kisrene McKenzie Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract This thesis presents a case study of Canada‟s first Black owned radio station, FLOW 93.5 FM, to demonstrate how official multiculturalism, in its formulation and implementation, negates Canada‟s history of slavery and racial inequality. As a response to diversity, multiculturalism shifts the focus away from racial inequality to cultural difference. Consequently, Black self-determination is unauthorized. By investigating FLOW‟s radio license applications, programming and advertisements, this thesis reveals just how the vision of a Black focus radio station dissolved in order to fit the practical and ideological framework of multiculturalism so that Blackness could be easily commodified. This thesis concludes that FLOW is not a Black radio station but instead is a multicultural radio station – one that specifically markets a de-politicized Blackness. As a result, multiculturalism poses serious consequences for imagining and engaging with Blackness as a politics that may address the needs of Black communities in Canada. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my deepest gratitude to my thesis supervisor, Dr. Sherene Razack, for her guidance, constant support, encouragement and initial interest in my thesis topic.

Matthew Capel Thesis 18 September 2007
'Damned If They Do And Damned If They Don't': The Inferiority Complex, Nationalism, and Maclean's Music Coverage, 1967-1995 By Gordon Matthew Donald Capel A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2007 © Gordon Matthew Donald Capel 2007 Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as required by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This thesis critically analyses music coverage in Maclean’s between 1967-1995, and reveals that the magazine continually stressed Canadian music as inferior to that produced by foreign artists. Only during times of intense nationalism were Canadian musicians positively received in its pages. More generally, domestic productions were seen as deficient. The historical components of this investigation reveal an essential irony in the perception of Canadian music during the last four decades of the 20th century. Despite nationalist rhetorics and Maclean's self-appointed title of "Canada's National Newsmagazine," its critics consistently emphasised that Canadian music was of poor quality in the 1967-1995 period. iii Acknowledgements I would like to express my gratitude to all those wonderful people who helped me complete this thesis. First, I must applaud my thesis advisor P. Whitney Lackenbauer for his motivation, discerning eye, and willingness to tell me when something wasn't history. For this confused, stubborn, and excitable grad student, your support cannot be overstated.

From Rez to Rap to Right Now with Hip Hop Ostwelve / Ron Dean Harris
From Rez to Rap to Right Now with Hip Hop Ostwelve / Ron Dean Harris Hip hop has helped to shape my life, my career and my worldview. It has been present in the majority of my life and I don’t really see it going anywhere. Hip hop has had many faces and phases, and I’m lucky to have been able to witness some of those. They have taught me more about the world and about myself. In the chase for hip hop stardom, I have come across both adversity and victory, but in the grand scheme of it all, hip hop has shaped me into the man I am today. My first experiences with hip hop were so long ago that they are hard to recall, but if I were to name one it would have to be break dancing in the 80s. I remember my older cousins breaking and wearing the fashions of the break dance culture. Even at home on the Rez in the Fraser Valley, there were cousins on the hunt for cardboard to break on and even my cousin Douboy and I would wear our track pants and try to do backspins and windmills at the age of 5. A lot of the hip hop culture I experienced was with my cousin Douboy, as we were born the same year and had the same interest in music and culture. He, my aunt and my uncle would pick me up from my grandparents’ where I lived in Maple Ridge (a small town outside of Vancouver) and we would listen to whatever new music Douboy would get on the way into Vancouver in the car.
