MIMS Future ClassicsFuture Classic: Rollrgrrl “Repent”
I never thought I’d see the day where my friend’s mom makes it to the MIMS front page! Working hard as a hairdresser during the day, she slaves away at sluggish sizzurp-fueled beats after dark, desperately trying to overpower the harmful side-effects from old-lady perm fumes. It’s a hard-knock life, but someone’s gotta do it. […]
MIMS Forgotten TreasuresForgotten Treasures: East Flatbush Project “Tried By 12″ Remixes (1998)
When I was 17, I used to hangout with a guy named Fat Steve who lived in a suburb of Montreal called Cote-St-Luc. We’d chill in his bedroom at his mom’s house and listen to rap music after school. He had the fattest cat I’d ever seen in my life, and was obsessed with Quasimoto […]
MIMS Forgotten TreasuresForgotten Treasures: In Touch ft. Ce Ce Rogers “No Love Lost” Lost Mix (1994)
In a perfect world this would have been a crossover smash hit. In reality this was not even close to be a minor hit. This might be due to the fact that the best version was never included on the commercial release. The title of this mix – Lost Mix – was probably a premonition […]

Future Classic: Belleruche “Backyard” (KidKanevil Remix)

Forgotten Treasure: Oran “Juice” Jones – The Rain (1986)
Ok so I know it’s been a streak of a couple really cheesy selections of our forgotten treasures segment, but to me it’s a very fine line between awesome cheese and smelly old cheese. And as you know, well… we ...

Moka Only is definitely one of Canada’s most prolific and underrated MC’s. By the time I finish this post he’s gonna probably put out another 2 records. Loving this jam. Perfect winter headphone music.

XLR8R Magazine : Issue 137 ft. Ramadanman

Forgotten Treasure: Don Carlos “I’m not crazy” (1984)
