Harrison f/MED & Guilty Simpson, “Bump”
Harrison enlists MED and Guilty Simpson, whose verses walk the line between optimistic and cynical, despite rapping over the Toronto producer’s lightweight, jazzy beat.
Charmaine f/Paris Richards, “Jeez (Remix)”
Paris Richards hops on the Jeez remix, adding her own bombastic flare to an already explosive track, even throwing in a Lizzie McGuire reference in her verse.
Lost, “Pont Champlain”
Montreal’s Lost is in album mode, releasing the guitar-led banger “Pont Champlain” ahead of his newest project Héritage, dropping in April.
Mike Shabb & Nicholas Craven, “Respectfully”

On the gentle “Mona Lisa,” Colombian-Canadian singer Tei Shi refuses to spare her ex as she tenderly throws insults his way, both directly and passively.
Mauvey, “I Dare You To Break”
