TUNE in to CJLO TONITE July 6th 2016 for a very special edition of Champions of the Local Scene as we feature a special radio documentary featuring the adventures of our Hip-Hop artIst resident, Strange Froots! Fun treats, and great beats are in store for the entire hour, including behind-the-scenes commentary from your co-hosts Saturn De Los Angeles (Shibuya Crossing) and Joana Cumo (Je Suis TBA)!
The release of The Life of Pablo has to be one of the most divisive albums of the year, where we question does the music separate the ego that is known as Kanye West, who goes also by the name of "Yeezus". If that is not a God complex, then maybe the track "I Am a God" might lead more insight into this strange, bigger-than-life-itself complex. The purpose of this article is to go through the anthology of an artist who introduced me to hip hop. The three things this article will be focusing on are the humility, the ego, and the music of the artist known as Kanye West.
I was asked to write an article about the draft held in Buffalo last Friday, which ultimately was overshadowed by the Subban trade rumours (thanks George Laraques and 91.9 Sport). The trade never materialised then, which in retrospect I think is a good thing.
