RASCALZ



Year of Game Change: 1998
Origin: Vancouver, BC
Genre Facelift: HIP HOP
Cherchez La Moose: It doesn't get more classic than Northern Touch. Rascalz are amazing - remember when they bitchslapped the Junos and rejected their award because the Best Rap Recording category never got televised? Talk about a defining moment. Their 1997 album Cash Crop is still one of the best Canadian hip hop albums of all time. Northern Touch posed the question 'how awesome would it be if 3 of the best MC's on the West Coast joined forces with upcoming legendary director Little X, star-in-the-making video model Melyssa Ford, and 3 of the best rappers to ever come out of Toronto?' and answered it with an unwavering 'VERY.'
