Here’s some really dope footage of Drake, SBTRKT and Sampha performing ‘Wildfire’ live for the first time in Toronto. LDN, stand up. Quite an incredible moment – SBTRKT & Sampha are still relatively underground/niche artists, even on these shores – someone like Drake can (and probably already has) offer serious exposure.

Young Turks sire SBTRKT DJd Glasslands here in Williamsburg the other night, and when he dropped Cruel Summer slammer “Wildfire,” the masked post-everything producer popped the crowd off with a tribally doctored refix of Drake’s essential remix. That was a good moment that could have been topped only if like Drake showed up to spit Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Stereogum Discovery Date : 09/07/2011 14:14 Number of articles : 2
My name is Jessica. On September 18th, 2009, when I was 12 years old, I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and I was hospitalized at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario to receive chemotherapy treatment. The cancer was very aggressive so the chemotherapy was very aggressive. Because of this, I had to live in the hospital for 6 months and would not be able to return to school or to competitive dancing. I was devastated. After one month of treatment, I was very sick. I lost all of my hair and I was very sad and lonely. During my third round of treatment, in December 2009, I was at my lowest point. I had just come out of isolation for a very bad infection and I was still very weak. My IV line was attached to a pole and the tubes were attached to my body via a line that was surgically inserted into my chest. One morning, in December shortly before Christmas, a nurse came into my room and said, “Do you know a singer named Justin Bayber or something like that?” Although she was saying his name wrong, I knew EXACTLY who she was talking about. I jumped up and said, “Yes, Justin Bieber, I love him, why?” She told me that he was coming to the hospital and I had 10 minutes to get down to Marnie’s Lounge (a recreation area in the hospital) where he would be coming. I jumped out of bed, still in my pajamas and still attached to my IV pole. The nurse told me they would take me off the IV line but I would have to drink many glasses of orange juice to keep my blood sugar levels normal so I wouldn’t pass out. I then ran into the bathroom and put on clothes, my wig and hat and any makeup my mom had with her, and we made our way down to the lounge. There were some other very sick teens in there as well and we all sat very quietly as we waited for Justin to come. That was hard because I was bursting on the inside! Then he came in and the room was very quiet during his entire visit. He talked with each and every patient in there, took pictures, signed autographs. He talked for as long as every child wanted to. He asked me if I had Facebook and I told him yes and he said he wasn’t allowed to get it until he was 14! We laughed. Above is the picture he took with me that day. My mom only had her cell phone with her so we were never able to get a very good picture so I treasure this one, even though I’m not at my best. I was released from the hospital on my 13th birthday, February 18th, 2010. My cancer was in remission. I am now 14 years old, still cancer free, and I will be graduating from my elementary school in Ajax, Ontario this Tuesday, June 28th. When I think back to my time in the hospital, Justin’s visit came at the best time possible and helped me through a very difficult time . I love him and hope that one day I will be able to thank him in person. -Jessica Theocharides @ilovejbgirl18 Read the original post: My name is Jessica. On September 18th, 2009, when I was 12…
My name is Asia Gousse & my first Bieber experience was on November 17th 2009 . I had come home from school on the 16th in the car with my mom. We were talking about Justin of course when she broke the news, “Honey I forgot, I was supposed to take you to a studio to meet Justin Bieber today.” That sentence right there was when my world smashed into pieces. “BUT WHAT TIME IS IT AT?!” She replied with a shy “3 pm.” I turned my head to clock just to find out that it was 3:30. I was devastated. Later I was moping around at home in resentment. Later that night, my mom broke more news to me. This time it was good! She had let me know that she was only JOKING. That it wasn’t for today…it was for TOMORROW! The next day at school I told everyone about how I get to meet Justin Bieber. No one believed me…but who cares. We drove up to a tv studio and we are at the Live taping of ‘Lopez Tonight’ so I thought then, okay I just get to see him perform. We enter the studio through a back door. We had our passes so it was okay. I walked down the short hallway, make a sharp left, and up two steps. I looked to my left, and through two glasses sliding doors there he was. Justin Drew Bieber. On a couch with Kenny, surrounded by what was at the time just two dancers . I was just so stunned. It was really him. I walk through the doors, and I let my dad do the talking. We walk up to the couch he was sitting on. My dad introduces himself and I push him aside. I look at Justin, he looks at me. He took my hand and shook it. “Hi I’m Justin” (in my mind i was saying, Oh honey, you dont have to tell me who YOU are) I said, “Hi I’m Asia nice to meet you”. I handed him the cupcakes from my mom’s work and he eagerly grabbed them. I had a huge smile on my face. He had on a black american apparel sweater and a black hat with blue plaid on the bottom. He was so adorable! He acted like such a kid. He was having fun…obviously. He tore through out Little Miss Sunshine (vanilla cake with lemon center and lemon frosting) while Kenny devoured the Red Velvet. It was so amazing to see him eat the cupcakes because my mom and I put so much effort, love, and time into the company. He looked up with wide eyes and mouth full of cake and said “THANK YOU!” Anyways, he was definitely enjoying his time. Soon he was getting ready to perform and he put his earpiece in. He was turning into the freaking energizer bunny because he was so hyper! I was standing behind him at the time and he accidentally backed into me. He turned around and said he was really sorry. Oh but I was still so starstruck all I say was it’s okay! Then some lady came around with her phone told him to get next to me really quickly and to smile…1,2,3, FLASH! We were both caught off guard and she took a picture. Then Justin went out on stage and when he was done, he stopped by the room once more. I managed to get a quick, “You did really good out there” in but everything after that was rushed. Anyways, he had to rush to a concert at Universal City walk. Kenny had told my dad and I to come along for the ride with them. That would mean ME in the SAME car as Justin Bieber! But my dad and I went separately instead because he TOOK TO LONG! I went and saw him perform. I’ve had all of these wonderful opportunies because my dad is Sr.Vp. of Defjam Records . But trust me, I love and support Justin like every fan out there. Im a die-hard, bieber fanatic, and even withouth connections you know I would have found my way to meeting him one way or another, thats for sure! I made my Twitter on the same day as I met him. Then I went home and sang a cover of ‘Down To Earth’. I was the SECOND person to post a cover that song on YouTube. P.S. SINCE THEN, I have seen Justin : perform at his Valentine’s Day concert, present an award at the Grammys, perform at the KCA’s 2010, 3 of his Los Angeles My World concerts, watched him perform at the AMA’s, I went to a private screening of NSN3D, and lastly I went to the L.A. Never Say Never 3D movie premiere at the Nokia Theatre. I am BEYOND grateful that words cant even describe. I really do hope that every belieber gets their special chance to meet justin and watch him perform because those moments were the best moments of my life. -@asiagousse Original post: My name is Asia Gousse & my first Bieber experience was on…
Remember the Toronto Premiere of ‘Never Say Never’? Well that was probably the most stressful weekend of my life! It all started the day before my history exam when Kiss 92.5 announced they would be giving out tickets to the Toronto premiere of Never Say Never. I actually called in like 3485743890239854 times. It would ring sometimes, but most of the time it was just busy. Toronto Belieber’s are unreal; let’s just leave it at that. I had the week off school because I had just finished exams, and literally my entire break was spent working as hard as I possibly could to get tickets to the premiere. Kiss 92.5 was on in my house and every time they announced they were giving them away, all my friends and family would call in, but no luck. That’s when Muchmusic announced if you wanted tickets to see Bieber on Much that weekend come to the show on Tuesday. We went and it turned out they only had only 20 tickets, so they drew names from a hat, and neither of us won. I bawled my eyes out on the train ride home, knowing that the premiere was tomorrow and I didn’t have tickets. We tried to look on the bright side; there’s going to be other opportunities to see Justin, but we were really upset. Then Kiss announced that we still had 1 chance left. We had to go down to Dundas Square tomorrow with a sign involving Kiss 92.5 & Justin Bieber and the best signs would get tickets. That night, we actually didn’t sleep. We worked all night on a poster that was 3 bristol boards long, it had pop outs, glitter and a lot of hard work went into it. We woke up at 10am the next day, and with barley any sleep it was back on the train down to Toronto for that one shot at tickets to the premiere. We got to Dundas Square and it was packed with girls with AMAZING signs. We were just chilling in the -20 degree weather when this man came up to us and said “Don’t freak out, just meet me in AMC”. I was like, “Did we win” and he said “Yes, but don’t freak out”. I was flipping out in the calmest way possible as we made our way to the AMC across the street. There was a lady there who gave us our tickets and showed up wear to go. While we were in line we saw Chaz, Ryan and Mitch. It was so sweet. Then we got into the theatre and met Dan Kanter. He’s amazing. Then everyone had to go back to there seats and JUSTIN BIEBER came out and introduced Jon M Chu, and thanked us all for coming. They surprised Justin and brought out DRAKE. We couldn’t believe this was all happening less then 20 feet away from us. Justin then took his seat and they played the movie. Justin was sitting like only 5 rows away from us. Shoutout to Jon Chu on directing an incredible movie, that I will watch over and over again. IT WAS AMAZING. I would be watching the movie, and I would just turn to my friend and be like HOLY CRAP, Justin is right there! Ahhh! In the end it all worked out for us. We didn’t get to meet Justin, but the day was amazing. We went from not having tickets the day of the premiere to being there, with Justin and the rest of his amazing crew. Thank you Kiss 92.5 for the amazing experience! I’ll never forget it. -Jenny Zies @jennyzies Read the original here: Remember the Toronto Premiere of ‘Never Say…

My name is Hailey and I am from Toronto! This is my Bieber experience. On June 19th, 2011 Justin was in town for the MMVA’S. My friends dad is a paparazzi and told me that Justin was going to be at the airport at a certain time. My mom, dad and I went, and saw him. Security made him go straight into the car, and he was ducking because he thought there was a huge group of people. After a minute, he put his head up and realized it was just my mom and I at the window. He sat up and I was waving and he waved back and I couldn’t even think!! I was too speechless and shy to invade his privacy and ask for a picture. As we were leaving I saw Ryan Good & Allison Kaye leave. I said hi to Ryan and asked for a picture. He was so nice and dropped all his luggage to do so! -Hailey See the article here: My name is Hailey and I am from Toronto! This is my Bieber …
My name is Dani and here are all the times that I have seen Justin Bieber. J uly 26, 2009 – S ummer Rush 2009 . November 6th 2009 – Autograph signing at Vaughan Mills and concert at the Kool Haus .

On Tuesday November 23, 2010 I went to Justin Bieber’s concert in Toronto, Ontario and what happened is that my friends and I got to the concert early. Right when we got into the Air Canada Centre we went looking for a bathroom. We had floor seats so we had access to all the V.I.P areas. We saw a line so we stood in it thinking it was for the bathroom. About 2 minutes of waiting and I noticed everyone coming from the way was either screaming of joy, or crying , then I also noticed everyone in the line had on a wristband. At that very second my friends and I had realized we were standing in line to meet JUSTIN BIEBER! We decided to stay in the line and about 5 minutes later security asked us how many people, we said 3. He didn’t check if we had wristbands (we didn’t) and then as we were waiting to go in, we saw Justin with his friends taking a picture. Right after that we were let in! There he was, all cute with his hat on. We took our picture and got scooted out of the room, that whole night we were legit screaming our heads off!
