Choclair is a foundational hip-hop artist from the streets of Toronto (Scarborough to be exact, where I personally believe most of Toronto's best lyricists reign from lol, sorta like New York's borough of Brooklyn). Kareem "Choclair" Blake released an EP called 'What It Takes' in 1997 which was accompanied by a music video featuring Jully Black. To many Torontonians in particular it is now deemed a Canadian classic (and it's had the time to be considered that because Toronto's rap scene has developed dramatically since the release of that song).
Original Song...
Choclair is a standout rapper in the burgeoning Canadian hip-hop scene and most of Choclair's independent releases were featured around the globe on prestigious hip-hop compilations. In the golden age of Canada's rap scene (in the 90's) from the likes of Saukrates, Kardinal Offishall, Jully Black, Solitair, Marvel, Tara Chase and many more of T-Dot's finest, Choclair undoubtedly has his own place among the ranks of those just mentioned). In the spirit of honoring that very tradition, I AM IN DEMAND MANAGEMENT in conjunction with WHOLE WHEAT BROTHERS MUSIC puts out this re-make of the song 'What It Takes' revisited by a Toronto MC named 'Sep' featuring singer Lisa Banton. This track is from a mixtape that will be released again in the summer of this year entitled 'Who is Sep' (look out for all updates)..
