It's A Rap: 'Canadian Boy' Hits High Note For Raptors' NBA Glory
Drake has been the team’s most visible supporter, next to ‘superfan’ Nav Bhatia–and there’s plenty of rap songs extolling the league’s new champ. However, none has quite captured the moment quite like Peter Jackson.

It’s a rapturous time for Canada and Toronto specifically with the Raptors triumphant sixth-game victory that has won them the NBA title.
Drake has been the team’s most visible supporter, next to ‘superfan’ Nav Bhatia–and there’s plenty of rap songs extolling the league’s new champ. However, none has quite captured the moment quite like Peter Jackson who first made a name for himself in 2015 with his We The North playoff anthem, and late last month the self-proclaimed ‘Canadian Boy’ released Toronto Raptors 2019 NBA Finals Anthem on his YouTube channel with 100% of profits from the track going to the MLSE charitable Foundation.
In honour of last night’s win, here’s to the team, Canada, and Peter ‘Canadian Boy’ Jackson.
