Lately I've been reading all about human history and about how the greatest eras in human advancement always occurred during times when there was Matriarchal power in the world, female rulers instituted balance and harmony within there societies from time immemorial. Fittingly within the scope of Canadian Rap Music, a female by the name of Michie Mee became, in 1988, the first Canadian rapper to sign a deal with an American record label. She was the push that set a mark in what is now a blossoming hip hop industry in Canada.
Above is the cover art for an album entitled: Jamaican Funk - Canadian Style, by Michie Mee - released May 14, 1991 (And that's just a little Canadian Hip Hop History) from an era when putting out Hip Hop music in Canada was hard for rap artists...LIKE REALLY HARD.
So I try to know Tradition...to remember those who paved the way.
