Snow Performs At The Rogers Spring Music Festival
Guinness World Record holder, Snow will be performing as part of the Urban Hamilton Showcase during the Rogers Spring Music Festival on Thursday May 7th at Seventy Seven Night Club.
Snow was born and raised in the city projects of Toronto, Canada. While in prison he learned to speak patois from other inmates and from there as a singer he found the love for Jamaican music. He studied and sang reggae music with a passion and later made Kingston, Jamaica his second home. After being released from prison he crossed the US border to meet with producer/rapper MC Shan who introduced him to MotorJam’s/Elektra Records co founder David Kenneth Eng (also his manager) to sign a US recording contract.
With the Billboard Pop chart hit “Informer” scoring a straight seven week run at number one, and then followed by another Billboard top ten hit “Girl I’ve Been Hurt” and the DJ turntable hit “Lonely Monday Morning” made Snow an international sensation.

Canadian Superstars Ready To Rock Roxx
There will be a sense of nostalgia at the Roxx Niteclub Friday night when some of Canada’s best hip-hop artists take to the stage.
Thanks to collaborations with such artists as Busta Rhymes, Rihanna, Method Man and Akon, there may not be a hotter artist on the scene than Kardinal Offishall.
The Toronto MC will lead the charge into Barrie Friday night, bringing with him Canadian hall of famers Choclair and Snow, as well as young up-and-comers Sick Tricks and Mr. Ranking. Music at the Chrome Age Production show will be provided by DJ Spence Diamonds.
The event, brought to you by Liquid Chrome, Chills Canada and Logoz City Fashions, is a 19+ event and the doors open at 8 p.m. Tickets are $25.
The Barrie Advance had a chance to talk to hip-hop legend Choclair and Sick Tricks, a local favourite.
Barrie Advance: In your opinion, what part of Canada is holding it down in the terms of growing and supporting hip-hop?
Choclair: I think the people themselves are holding it down for the growing support of hip-hop in Canada. I think The industry as a whole still has a way to go to as far as setting up the structure that can support the whole hip-hop music business, but the people themselves (the listener) has really stepped up the support for the music.
