Recently I saw a video that Ed Sheeran did with Stormyz and Burna boy called Own it. I remember Stomyz from another video with Ed Sheeran called Take me back to London. That I can relate to. Ed Sheeran did another one about LA called Beautiful People saying we don't belong here. That I can also relate to. New York and London were different.
Stomyz is from Brixton. Back I the day I loved Brixton. The Caribbean brother's taught me to box at the Brixton Rec Centre. Idris Elba is from Brixton and he's solid. These are all positive people. The Canadian rappers here at home have lost their way. Don't get me started on Drake. I'm referring to the multitude of wannabees that never evolved. They're all stuck in the past promoting the negative. Life is too short for that.
Seven years ago Stomyz put out one called Blinded by your grace. That was totally positive. Four years ago Stomyz and Burna boy put out one called Real Life. That says it all. Canadian rappers are lost. No one wants to work for a living any more. Nobody wants to be a role model any more. Go to work. Pay your bills. Be a man. Get a real job. That's reality.
