what an incredible show!
after months of teasing and anticipation, the okay player tour finally touched down in toronto.
we got there around 8pm. mastermind was bringin out all of the phattest joints. pure anthems to get the crowd hype for the show.
a couple heinekens and stompin beats later, the roots took the stage.
i have not heard live hip hop in the longest time. it's been a while since i heard a live band at that! the roots are incredible musicians.
take a look at the only pik i got to take last night. also notice the security by the speaker who made me check my camera after i took this pik.
i was curious how they were going to get all of the acts on stage...and to my surprise the entire concert was just one big jam with the roots providin all of the background music.
talib kweli brought mad energy to the stage next, followed by the sexxxy soulful voices of the jazzy fat nasties...but the energy explosion landed when slum village hit the stage! man, these niggas gave new meaning to the word hype! they were feelin it, no doubt! crazeeeee....
i was really looking forward to the queen lyricist bahamadia to throw down, and she assaulted the toronto massive with her distinct and fluid lyrical flow.
the crowd lost it when bahamadia asked "is it true that toronto is the drum and bass capital of north america?" and then proceeded to drop 'new forms', the track she appeared on for roni size.
but the highlight for my night had to be the guru. i have wanted to hear this master lyricist perform since the daze of gangstarr. his voice, his style, his energy are unmatched in the world of hip hop.
jam after jam, the okay playa krew mixed it up for one sweet evening of live hip hop music. you never knew who would come out next to throw down.
the encore was the entire okay player krew joining the roots for 'i shall proceed and continue to rock the mic', including special guest choclair.
toronto hip hop is blowin up.
i was glad to be a part of the last okay player tour of 2000...now if only rhazel showed up for the concert. where the hell wuz he? i kept on thinkin 'maybe he'll be the encore'...but the godfather of noise was nowhere to be found.
it was great hanging with you hmha, d-cypher, i lix, and i hope you are feeling better jane.
9/10 for the okay player tour, rhazel would have made it a perfect show.
