International Hip Hop Festival Rock The Bells Hits Toronto Canada

What up everyone ! It's ya main man RTiculate here, just thought I'd write a quick blog post about the show I was thinking about catching tonight. Rock the Bells '09 hits my home town of Toronto, Ontario, Canada tonight and I'm one hundred per cent sure it is going to be an amazing show with some HUGE performances lined up.



Rock the Bells is perhaps the largest hip hop festival on the international scene, boasting an all-star studded line up of hip hop artists. This year's hosts will include the legendary KRS-one, Murs, Supernatural and super producer Pete Rock. Some of the notable performers on tonight's bill are Nas, Common, The Roots, Damien Marley, Busta Rhymes, Big Boi (of OutKast), M.O.P., horrorcore rapper Necro, Reflection Eternal (Talib Kweli and innovative producer Hi-Tek). Other performers include iconic producer RZA, GZA, Tech N9ne, with super group Slaughter House (Royce da 5'9, Joell Ortiz, Joe Buddens and Crooked I) and old school rap group House of Pain.



Toronto's own up and coming rap star K'Naan will also be performing in the line up. K'Naan continues to spread his music movement world wide, while gaining alot of acclaim in Canada. The Somolian born emcee continues to turn heads with tracks like "What's Hardcore". Check out K'naan on Myspace and Youtube to get familiar with this sick hip hop artist doing Canada proud.
