I'm an independent music promoter from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada. Everybody thinks hip hop is dead, I can assure you it is alive and well on my page called Island Underground Hip Hop Appreciation. It all started almost 3 years ago back in April 2012 when I met my boyfriend at the time Sam. I never knew this kind of music existed, ya I heard of some of the artists before. But neve
r the terms underground hip hop or hardcore hip hop. I was intrigued to learn more, hear more, do more for the hip hop community, and spread the word about their music. I began to add artists on Facebook and began to share their music. In July 2012, I ran by my team at the time to see if they all wanted to pitch on a show and have Sean Strange & M**h Mouth in Charlottetown, P.E.I. They were all game so I asked M**h Mouth on Facebook, he said he would run it by Sean Strange and get back to me. M**h Mouth got back to me a couple days later and everybody was down! So I began to plan the show for September 2012, I was in charge of all the planning and I had a lot of fun doing it! September 2012 came rolling around pretty quick, and it was time for the show. M**h Mouth came in a day early so he could chill out for a bit. Sean Strange and their manager Gustapo Masino flew in Saturday morning of the show. Their label is Nah Bro & Illseed Entertainment. I started to planning the show at the end of July 2012, I had a lot of time to promote and lots of people knew about it. But when time came for the show, not that many people came out to support me, I was confused because it was Saturday night and also was a little upset at first. But then M**h Mouth and Sean told me not to worry, s**t happens and it was my first show. Other than that the show went well and opened a lot of doors for me for further shows, so I was happy! It was an awesome experience. I knew in the future I wanted to do it again. In March 2013 I created my own page called Island Underground Hip Hop Appreciation. It is a place where I promote artists of the underground music scene from outside the Maratimes provinces in Canada, different spots from the USA, Europe, Columbia, and Mexico. I would like to get my hands into the underground scene in the U.K, I just don't have the time to spend to look up stuff right now. Two years after the M**h Mouth & Sean Strange show, I started to plan another show completely on my own for January 2014. I had Klee Magor down from Landmine Entertainment in Toronto, Ontario. That show ran really smoothly. Klee also has his own group called Riviera Regime, that consists of himself, Big Stretch the Demon Slayer and Benny Brahmz. You can buy all their albums online at www.rivieraregime.com. I did have a few more ideas for 2014 but they got put on pause for now. Because I returned back to school in 2014, then ended up leaving for personal reasons. I return back to school in March 2015 to finish my upgrading. In September 2015 I will be taking the Air Gas Turbine Engine Overhaul and Repair Technology at Holland College and I will be going into Aerospace. Everybody can stay up to date on my page on Facebook. Peace / Much Love
