      & That's A Rap!

      Wuddduupp friends?! Done exams? Us neither. We know that you’re excited for zammers to end and summer to commence but before your break out the camo shorts, hold up a sec. This week marked the last show of the 2013-2014 school year. I know yall are just as sad as we are BUT fear not because yours truly will be giving yall that good good all summer long. The day and time is to be announced but just know it’s gunna poppin’.

      Since Kamo and I are the most generous of DJs, we decided to see what yall were saying about this year. Sure, Kamo and I could make a list on the hottest of these past 8 months but it wouldn’t for the people. Word to FUBU. So we decided to make a little survey so that you guys could tell us what you thought was hot or not. We compiled 9 categories with 5 nominees each. You guys logged onto SurveyMonkey and voted away. Last night we released the results but in case (for some strange reason) you missed it, here are the winners:

      Best Rapper of the School Year: Drake

      Best Collaboration of the School Year: Sanctified – Rick Ross, Kanye West & Big Sean

      Rookie of the School Year: Chance The Rapper

      Best Club Banger of the School Year: My N***a – YG & Rich Homie Quan

      Most Missed of the School Year: Kendrick Lamar

      Best Mixtape of the School Year: Blue Chips 2 – Action Bronson

      Best Album of the School Year: Nothing Was The Same – Drake

      Song of the School Year: Man of the Year – ScHoolboy Q

      Annnnnd there you have it; a snapshot of this school year. From September to April, hip-hop was at its finest, and we couldn’t have been more excited to spin all we could. Now for the shoutouts…

      We wanna give a MASSIVE thankyou to everyone who tuned in and enjoyed our show week in and week out. We also wanna thank everyone at RadioLaurier for allowing us to put on for the culture. & last but certainly not least, thankyou to hip-hop. Cheesy, right?

       

       

       

       

       

       

       

       

      Peace, Love & May 7th (wait on it)

      Music means different things for different people. Music means different things for different people. For many of us, music is a way to escape; we get lost in the melody and vibe with the beat. Sometimes the words speak to us. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or alone, plug in your headphones and get lost in the music. Along with music, there are many different coping methods of self care and dealing with anxiety. Mental health is just as important as physical health; just because we cannot see it does not mean it isn’t there. Check in with those you know, the strong ones or the ones that appear happy also get anxious. Speak kindly to each other and to yourself. It’s okay to share, cry and be vulnerable. Stay Golden 💛💜
