Not only that but our schedules were so off that we never really managed to attend all the events we wanted to!
We missed Redman at the end of March, ONYX a couple of weeks ago...But when 'HA' called us up to let us know of this year's Freestyle Battle "King of the Dot" we knew we had to get out and support his boys from MTL. It was definitely a Saturday well-spent: it's good to see people doing their thing and know that Hip Hop is still alive in the hearts of some. Those with passion shined-through, the rest - well they just 'fell off the platform' as their Egos started flying around without any sufficient rhymes to back 'em up!

A week later we headed over to 99 Sudbury - the exclusive location of this year's Alternative Fashion Week.
99 Sudbury is an Event Venue, which houses many Art and Fashion Events; this time around it was the setting of an Art Market, where many local (and international) artists and designers/labels showcased their work.
We fell in love with many of their inspirational creations and I am currently in the works of contacting the ones that really grabbed our attention! It is great to to be a part of/and support emerging artists - we love unique pieces and at times 'detest' commercialism!
Check out the Set-Up of the Venue and its surroundings:

I love T.O. for its never-ending Graffiti Art:
Forgive me for this, but I am a fan of hidden-messages:
