Always by WaSun
The Underground King of Toronto
With previous heavy hitter releases, and re-release of Prison Notebooks, WaSun’s latest, is in his words, his best album: EARTH MOTHER. Getting into the tracks, the overall vibe is of a soft beach and warm sand. I am in love with this album. To the soul of the broken-hearted, this album hits home.
WaSun wrote a personal album, about his life. The hardship he describes via this album can only be felt by listening to the songs. Tell me which ones you listen to on repeat. currently mine is Always.
Old School Hip Hop and social justice movement is WaSun’s background and life. He is a modern warrior for us all. Support his album, released by TAOT RECORDINGS – Shout-out Righteous – Shout-out: Street Hop & DJ Carmelo. This is the album we all need to nurture our hurt wounds and find the strength to move on. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Album of a lifetime. Epicness surpass WaSun’s new release EARTH MOTHER-find it on streaming platforms. Support this GREAT, CANADIAN! Torontonian, multi heavy-hitter albums – check out Prison Notebooks, Comrade Music, What Must Be Done –

From mg08.site:
“Hailing from the frozen depths of Canada, MG 08 is a one-man war metal band formed in 2023 by Tom.Kpfw. MG 08 attempts to capture the essence of brutality and horror that is warfare.
The name, MG 08, draws its moniker from the iconic Maschinengewehr 08, a German machine gun used in the First and Second World Wars.
Through blistering guitar riffs, thunderous percussion, and screeching vocals, MG 08 pays homage to military history in every song.”
CKMS-FM DJs together with Denim Entertainment have a central spot at Open Streets—Willis Way Uptown Waterloo—on the 15th of June, 2024, from 12 pm til 6 pm. We are doing Live to Air from the event!
It will be an amazing day, with: KW Breakers, Giant Games, Art Market and more!
Fun filled day for the whole family!
See the City of Waterloo Open Streets Festival web page for more info.
