You have no idea man, when you asking if Maestro was the only one in Toronto doing this lol. Everyone was trying to be a b-boy , or b-girl back in the late eighties all the way through the 90's. Trust me there where many crews from Toronto and all over Canada. Hip hop blew up here as well as rave culture from the UK on top of it all. Jungle and drum and bass got huge in Toronto, with parties every weekend. Canadians had more exposure to music then Americans cause we where getting american and British influences. There was also multicultural breakdance crews in Toronto such as a group called bag a tricks!
For a showcase of the 90s Canadian rap scene check out "Northern Touch" by The Rascalz, it's like a cypher with a bunch of our best from back in the day!
You literally may be the third reactor to do a reaction on this hit. Thank you! I've asked on so many channels. Your comment "these are all ya mommas dancing..." or to that effect. So funny.
if you want to see a Toronto classic listen to Ol Time Killin by Kardinal Offishall. Certified Toronto classic. Its a lot more modern than this too. Early 2000's
Maestro was King of Canada rap to me in the 80s…a Toronto syndicate too bad they didn’t get picked up in the US but u notice the part “to the left….” Yea when destiny’s child put their song out I thought they lifted that part for their song…js
He put out a few albums then kind of disappeared into obscurity....rap was going on here in Canada but it wasn't a huge market...that's why most go to the states because the market is huge! His first video was produced by CBC's version of MTV....they held a country-wide contest looking for talent & he won! His prize was the making of his first video & free exposure!
The dream warriors were a toronto rap duo from i think 1988
My aunt knew him he used to be a security guard beside my nearest mall
1980 toronto was similar to an average big city back then, we had a crack problem in the 80s too
He's in the movie paid in full when money mitch and ace are rolling around in that convertible
Trust Me Maestro Is An O.G 👑🏆🐐

When you get older, you kids will say all of these Rappers sound & look alike too 🤣🤣
He made it okay in the States, try Rascals.
Does Canada have rappers? Kardinal, Classified, Maestro
Can’t forget Chockair, Saukrates, K-OS, Merkules
So that song was big in the U.S (as well as other parts of the world), but after that he had decent success in Canada but not really in the U.S again.
There's a lot more, they just don't get that notoriety easily. Should do one on the Rascalz - Really Livin.

In the 80's grab a piece of cardboard and breakdance anywhere lol😂

Maestro was Drake's mentor
Toronto had a good Hiphop scene in the 80’s and 90’s
No, one of the best rappers ever... extremely talented, but wrong time in Canada.
