“I learned stuff about the Canadian music industry in this cast and you will too. It’s amazing and heartbreaking at the same time. I couldn’t put it down. Neither will you.”

“Such a creative way of getting this story approved and out there despite the whiteness of decision makers. This podcast shares how Canada’s cultural institutions need a shake up and how they missed on some of the greatest economic success stories in Canadian music. If you are looking for great...”Read full review »

“Really impressed with the research done on this podcast. I loved all the Toronto hip hop history brought up (OTA Live! What a blessing that radio show was). I thoroughly enjoyed this. Just wish it was longer!”

“Best way to learn an in-depth history of the music we love to love. The chapter on feminism blew my mind. Yes yes yes... more of this.”

“I enjoyed this podcast, but took off a star because it made no mention of Much Music and Rap City. Arguably Rap City brought Canadian rappers into the living rooms of Canadians/Torontonians...to skip over that was odd.”

“Drake is what my kids listen too, not so much my taste, so I tuned in because A) I’m from Toronto ( Dream Warriors! Yes!) and B) Hip Hop content in pod casts is few and far between. I was sceptical that CBC could deliver something that wasn’t just a shmaltzy pat on our Canadian backs for being...”Read full review »

“Harper kills it with the breakdown of everything that went into creating Drake. I don’t like Drake, but you gotta respect the history that led to his rise”

“I’m a tough critic. This podcast was storytelling at its best - while I lived through many of the moments discussed, as a BIPOC music fan living in a really white suburb, I had limited access to this music, the shows and the culture... with the exception of what made it to the news which was...”Read full review »

“The storytelling and representation is amazing. I loved the way you reminded us of how the dots are connected, how one thing caused/forced others to pivot. And of course, I loved how it was underpinned with the topic of Canadian representation—why we don’t do a better job cultivating our local...”Read full review »

“Thank you for doing this! Loved the first episode and can’t wait for more. As somebody who grew up in Scarborough in the 80’s & 90’s it’s great to hear some old tracks and for some of the pioneers of Canadian Hip Hop get some air time and credit. Also for not just making a Drake podcast.”

It would be interesting to hear about how Kardi’s guitar smash both appropriated and subverted the guitar smashing of classic rock acts like The Who or how pre-rock African American guitarists...”Read full review »
