When I wasn’t in a mosh pit, jumping around to the sound of Schoolboy Q, I was probably in the crowd wondering if this was the last time I was seeing Cj Flemings perform in Montreal before his inevitable big break. Among all the live performances, three artists stood out by the way they energized the crowd even when there were only 40 of us watching.
Theophilus London
Cc: Kevin Sinclair
Theophilus London, an artist that came directly from New York for Fool’s Gold‘s homecoming event, is by far one of the most competent artists I’ve seen in a live performance throughout the whole Mural Festival. I must admit that I didn’t know much about him beforehand but he sparked my curiosity from the very beginning. At first, I thought he was only a DJ. He was playing a nice variety of hits and underground electro songs that made the crowd go crazy even though it was cold as ice outside. I was impressed by the unique connection that he has with his audience as an artist. While the music was playing Theophilus took the mic and talked to us about his past relationships, experiences in the music industry and point of view. I think he brought back something missing in music, i’m talking about the fact that as an artist you need to make the public feel your passion and relate to you on a personal level. Things got real when he decided to bringning people on stage and vibe with them. He really kept the energy going. Theophilus showed us a different sides of himself when he started to sing with distinct RNB and hip hop influences. Named the reincarnation of Micheal Jackson by Kanye West, Theophilus London will take you to musical places you’ve never been before.

SHASH’U
Cc: fool’s gold records
Shash’u is defintely Fool’s Gold secret weapon. Once again, I was confronted with the fact that I really have to do my homework on what is going on in the scene. I couldn’t believe that this incredible DJ/producer didn’t appear on my dopeness radar. Shash’U is from Montreal and represents the city worldwide with his dynamic presence on stage and his musical ear. He brought a local dance crew with him and made it clear that the bad weather wasn’t going to stop him from killing the show. At one point, it was hard for our cameraman to shoot, because he was so busy vibing. The crowd grew steadily when Shash’U started to hit the 1’s and 2’s. He stood out because he knows how to read his crowd, he knows what to play and when to play it. Imagine it for yourself: one minute jumping to OG Bobby Johnson and the next being taken back in time and to vibe to classics like Zouk La Se Sel Medikaman.

Kardinal Offishall
Kardinal Offishall will always be our first canadian ambassador regardless of who carries the torch today. During his set, he expressed nothing but love for Montreal. He explained that he always feels at home here and whenever they needed him to perform, he’ll be here by the very next morning. It was an intense moment in which – for once – it wasn’t about a Montreal versus Toronto or any other rivalry we share with people from the 6. It was about reuniting for this special moment and enjoying our love of hip hop music. Speaking of, Kardinal Offishall wanted to make sure that Montreal’s audience had their stuff together when it comes to music: he started his set with an amazing selection of the best old school songs. Honestly, none of that can match what I felt when he played my all time favourite of his: “Ol’ Time Killing**“.

This Year Malefycia Is Colliding Horror And The Bible To Make The Thrill Of Halloween Real Again
Malefycia Is Restoring The Feeling, One Spooky Scream At A Time
Long are the days when I was cruising down the streets on October 31st either looking for candies to devour for 3 weeks straight or even as an adult looking for a popping club where I could tell people ”My costume is ME tonight”.
The truth is, I think Malefycia restored something that I thought was buried inside me. They reminded me that not only I liked Halloween but I just couldn’t find an alternative in my adult life to spark my curiosity on one side and get the thrill going on the other.
Malefycia been around for a minute but this year they’re trying something different…I mean different.
You’re familiar with the 7 sins in the bible don’t you? You’re aware of what a haunted house is supposed to be don’t you? Well, something in their team had the genius and actually vicious idea to combine these two things who might have nothing to with each other on the outside looking in but in this new adventure/haunted house experience; it all make sense!
their show called V7CE is cross theatre performance, cross the most scary thing you’ve ever seen. The show includes different scenes and interactive plays putting on the forefront the 7 sins from the bible.
What always stand out to me when it comes to Malefycia, is there raw and authentic attention to details.
Do yourself a favor and come immerse yourself in this universe and your inner child and your thrill-seeking inner adult have some fun.

The city has been quiet fashion wise over the years and as platform that mostly talked about fashion in its inception, we’ve felt it the most over here.
There would be sparks of hope here and there but besides Festival De Mode & Design, not a lot of things really stood out.
When I heard about ”The Glitch” it’s like I knew what it was about without nothing what it was about.
I mean good branding is good branding but it was more so who’s behind the good branding this time around. I had the chance to work with Myraï Lavoie in the past and one thing I can is : there’s a method to her madness.
Every artist has an eye and that eye is shaped by our views of the world and life experiences. Myraï had an interesting life.
One where being different is actually the move. One where if you don’t fit somewhere, you don’t try to get in the mold, you bend it.
For all the lack of support or misunderstand she got in Montreal, she found a place to be creative working or being in room with the likes of Paris Hilton & P. Diddy to name a few.
What she’s learned from coming out of her shell and experiencing the world she’s about the share it with us with her own fashion called ”The Glitch” tonight.
”The Glitch” is exactly what I thought it was going to be. A standout experience and experience and something you’ve never seen before just like its creator.

We are now entering an era where we want to know more about what is going on on the other side of the world.
How people are living, their culture and what is their reality compared to ours.
Sometimes the depiction of such reality is either unfair or made to look down at somebody. Other times, filmmakers have the challenge to depict a reality in a way to uplift what other cultures are bringing to the table.
Milan Bihlmann and Muammer Yilmaz are two filmmakers who know where they stand when it comes to that.
”Rêves D’Afrique” is the epidemy of that. The two filmmakers decided to go to 7 countries in Africa to not only paint the picture for the world but to give the good people out there something we forget to give one another : ”a piece of yourself’.
Armed with a backpack, film gear and true altruism, the duo spread love and good deeds wherever they could throughout their trip.
Watch The Trailer
Les Grands Explorateurs being this platform to uncover the world made the right choice by adding this beautiful piece to their program.
Up until November 1st, you still have the chance to see the beautiful piece in theater and then online starting November 2nd.
