Must confess, I don’t know a ton about this kid, K. Forest from Brampton (a suburb community of Toronto for those not knowing), but his name came up when I was re-touting my feature piece from Nation of Billions about Canadian rappers besides Drake you should get up on. I should have been more aware given the kid’s song, “Guidance” is featured on Travis Scott‘s new album. Time for a new article, perhaps?

ICYMI: second single from The Weeknd‘s forthcoming Starboy album dropping Nov. 25. Ya dig??

The videos for “Cranes in the Sky” and “Don’t Touch the Hair” from Solange Knowles‘ surprise (?) #1 album, A Seat At the Table are fantastic as is the album. But you know the Kitchen was already knowing from the get!

The just-released, new Northen Lights album is great: a nice mix of crossover EDM, dubstep, hip-hop, old school drum n bass, UK grime, au courant indie-electronic pop and more. Nice to see how this Toronto-based duo continues to evolve with their sound and music . Here go two tracks from the album featuring Pusha T, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer and Jadakiss and Styles P of The Lox. Ya dig??

Excellent track from Mick Jenkins great The Healing Component album. Video is beautifully shot and powerful too. And apropos given the timing of the A Birth of a Nation film.
