Gangster Rap vs Electro (What to do on Thursday night, July 24th)
The West Coast sound is finally back in full force.
INFO:
Who: YG, live in concert for the 1st time in Canada (opening acts: Blockmode, Nyce+Stoney & Yung Jungle)
When: Thursday, July 24th, doors open at 9pm
Where: Arena nightclub, 2315 Sainte-Catherine W, Montreal
How Much: About 35$ (it is recommended to buy your tickets in advance)
You should attend if: You like the straight-outta-Compton gangster rap.
Tickets available at Off The Hook x High Times x Orlando Styles
If you rather enjoy the beautiful weather instead, then you need to be at the Esplanade in downtown’s Place des Arts. Here’s why…
Laval producer High Klassified will hit the turntables. Even though he looks like he just came from a 1990s sitcom, the suburban producer ( and A-Trak protégé) style fits right into the rap/pop/electro sound we can’t seem to get enough of.
Alongside Klassified will be Canadian DJ Lunice and top producer Just Blaze. For those who danced to his many hits last winter ( see my post on the Igloofest), you already know that this will be a guaranteed outdoor celebration!
Listen to their music right here:
High Klassified:
Just Blaze:

Stalley @ Ivy Nightclub, Montreal March 23rd (Privé Sunday)
For those who didn’t know, Maybach Music Group member Kyle ”Stalley” Myricks was at Ivy night club last Sunday.
Why artists always come in freezing weathers still remains a mystery to me. When we arrived around one, Montreal DJ Sweet La Rock played the latest club hits to everyone delight. Other DJs like Cream and Redd Dredd were also part of the party. I was surprised that no songs from our guest was even played, at least to introduce his music to some of the partygoers. Party heart, Swangin anybody ?! It would have been great to hear him perform a song or at least say something… I don’t know, maybe he was just tired or just plain high (my sister later confirmed she was slapped by a very LOUD smell around him). Oh well, at least me and other fans got the chance to pose with him for a picture which was cool from his part.
Last night was proof that conscious music doesn’t get as much airplays as ”pop-a-bottle-screw-b*tches” music does. It is up to us, music consumers to change this reality and listen REAL Music.
Now if you excuse me, I will go twerk my ass out to that new Tyga song and drink me some cheap Moscato.
Raise your ears, raise your Weapons!
M.U.L.A Grade 7/10: Next time I want to see Stalley perform, not sit around and wait patiently for his bottle to be brought to his VIP table.
