It's A Rap: 'Canadian Boy' Hits High Note For Raptors' NBA Glory

By FYI Staff

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 with100% of profits from the track going to the MLSE charitable Foundation.

Neil Young Endorses Kamala Harris For President: ‘Cast Your Vote For a Beautiful Future For Your Family’

The rocker joins a long list of artists supporting the sitting VP in her race against Donald Trump.

Neil Young has made it clear he’s no fan of Donald Trump. The “Keep on Rockin’ in the Free World” guitar hero has threatened to sue twice impeached convicted felon Trump before for playing his songs at campaign rallies, and over the weekend Young made it clear that he does not want to give the former President a second chance in Washington.

“Kamala Harris — She is an honest forthright truth teller who is experienced in the White House, free from ambiguity or evasiveness, who goes straight to the point,” wrote Young on his Archives site on Friday about the sitting Vice President, who is less than a month away from possibly becoming the nation’s first female President.
