    I’m from Ontario…almost 70 years. I never heard this song before until it has been used on a tv commercial. I’m not a rap music fan…however, I have to say this is one of my favourites! Great use of The Guess Who’s “These Eyes”. I battle with depression and play this song regularly to help lift my mood! Love it! 🦋😊

      The Scarborough Hospital Network fundraising campaign brought me here as well. I was born in Scarborough General Hospital 59 years ago. I love this campaign as they seem to be the underdog hospital network bringing light to inequity in health networks and, yeah, a great use of sampling "These Eyes". It is the only commercial at the moment that I don't mute when it appears! I hope you are doing well in your depression battle and glad that this song is helping.

    It was this song that made me take notice of the very effective and beautiful Scarborough Health Network ad. I was so touched by it that I made an online donation same day. I hope other donors will also consider to do the same instead of the other well-known ones like Mt. Sinai, Sick Kids, etc.

    This song is on the Mount Rushmore of Canadian hip hop. I think Husslin', Northern Touch, then something by K-Os and something Drizzy to round it out
