Toronto's hip hop community is alive! It has a soul and a voice of its own. For the last five years, the ManifesTO festival has been a representation of this growing culture.
This year, the 11 day festival was the biggest yet. On Sunday, September 25th, Dundas Square was packed with hiphop heads vibing to the music of Toronto's finest artists such as Andreena Mill, JD Era, Freedom Writers, and Beatbox Canada. Hiphop legends such as Michie Mee, Phonte, 9th Wonder, Kid Capri, and Rakim graced the stage to perform their classic tracks as the crowd felt and responded to their intensity. JD Era, who was recently signed to Raekwon's record label, surprised everyone when he invited the Wutang legend on stage to perform a verse. The crowd was in shock; their energy electric.
The entire day was filled with great music and positive vibes. Hip hop heads of every age, sex, race and background united for their love of great music. It felt as though the city was one being. It was a great day in Toronto hip hop.
