    Music eh! So Intimate & Interactive

    Tanya and I had the pleasure of attending Friday night’s Intimate Interactive with The Remix Project, featuring Andreena Mill, and the Remix Project’s; Kyauna Clarke, PG, Savannah Re, and Courtney Taylor, at Suba Lounge. I expected singing, but these ladies were SANGING! I had chills and goosebumps throughout all the performances; it was crazy. There was so much energy in all the performances, and the crowd showed so much love and support; i’m honoured to have experienced all that L-O-V-E. It was truly, Intimate & Interactive.

    Miss Andreena Mill- I’d never seen her perform, and I had no idea what a treat I was in for. She’s fantastic. Real talk. She’s gorgeous and have you seen those legs? OW! She has an amazing voice, and so much ENERGY when she performs. There’s no diva nonsense going on here, but there is some SERIOUS…SERIOUS talent. I love, love, loved, that she smiled throughout her entire performance. She sang, smiled, danced, and interacted with the crowd; giving us an excellent performance overall. 8 songs baby. Yeah I know, I’d be sad I missed it too. HA!

    Oh Kyauna… *heart* you- she seemed cool and calm, and has a soothing and very pretty voice to match! You know when you get that tingly feeling in your chest when you hear certain songs? when you’re really feeling the music? her voice does that…well for me anyway 🙂 When her performance was over I was fighting the urge to start chanting, “one more song!” out-loud with my fist in the air. What can I say, I could hear her sing all day.

    To be honest, I fell in love with PG while I was checking out her music last week. She sings, she raps, she’s petite with a GINORMOUS presence. I was so excited to see her perform and everything was just perfect. *ahem* Gotta start working on these vocals so we can do a song! ha ha ha. But for real. She’s dope. I could really go on and on, but then you guys might start thinking I’m obsessed and ish… *grins*

    Savannah Re. What can I say. I don’t even know. Someone said to me that they’d heard her sing before and that she had a beautiful voice, but I had to hear it for myself. She gave more than just a beautiful voice, there was soul, and there was passion; I have to admit that I definitely wasn’t expecting it, and was totally blown away. I think my mouth was hanging open at some point… Goosebumps galore, that feel good music for real.

    Oh man, Courtney Taylor… WATCH OUT for this girl! Seriously. She’s only 17, writes her own music, and plays the guitar…don’t get me started on that sweet, comforting, grab-you-by-the-heartstrings melody that is her voice. Please, don’t get me started lol. I’d be a proud momma if this was my youngin’.

    She just oozes with talent this woman

    Saukrates came out. They performed “You and Tomorrow” and  killed the stage. Straight murked it. Well done lady and gent 🙂

    “On the floor, through the roof, I’m standing here with you… you my home, you my club, you my office”– Saukrates

    “I’m feeling for what’s about to follow-oh, I got you and tomorrow”– Andreena Mill *now playing* You and Tomorrow. you can download it here

    Andreena premiered her new video for , directed by and we all loved it. Tika looked delish huh? I know, and she was an awesome host too.

    All in all, I think it’s safe to say that everyone had a great night. It was cold outside, but it was definitely worth the trip to come out and see all these artists perform. I applaud everyone that came out and showed support for our local talent, Toronto’s got mad LOVE for their city.

    Thank you so much to Tika Simone and The Remix Project for treating us to this one of a kind experience.

    peace, love and health

    ela by ela

    Are you familiar with Ela by Ela? I recently found out about designer Ela Kowalewska through Charise from Kaeru, and now it’s time for you to get to know her 🙂

    I like this, but I’d love it in a bright colour!

    Introducing the first capsule collection by Ela Kowalewska. The idea behind the collection is “humble luxury where refined and sophisticated silhouettes strive to showcase, rather than upstage the wearer.” The collection consists of a predominantly neutral palette that is complemented by bright hues of smaller items of the collections.

    So what do you think? Like it? Love it? Not so much?

    Thanks to Charise from Kaeru Communications for sharing this with us!

    peace, love and health.

    Music eh! On my own preview


    I met SOUL last summer, and we hit it off immediately. Such a cool guy, so funny, and totally talented. I was so impressed by how passionate he was about his craft, and his unwillingness to be grouped into any categories as far as producing music goes, that I had to interview him. We got to listen to some of his work, as well as find out a little bit about what makes the man that is SOUL tick. Which is why I was so excited to get some of his new work in my inbox this weekend.

    “On my own” is Vancouver-based rapper LAZE-E’s first single off the LAZE-E’s-MUGGER Therapy mixtape which is set to be released soon. The track features JRDN, and was produced by Mr. SOUL himself. We only get to hear a little bit of the song, but by the sound of it; SOUL definitely didn’t disappoint, and neither did LAZE-E or JRDN. I think this was a great collaboration, a very nice mix of talents, can’t wait to hear the whole song! Canada, you make me so proud.
    Thanks to SOUL for sharing this with us.
    What do you think of the song so far?
    peace, love and health

    ps: make sure you tweet them some L-O-V-E!
