All Canadian rap/hip hop/rnb sucks. However, Swollen Members are actually ok. I saw them at snow jam and they put on a pretty good show.

Yeah, I've never heard of them, either. But that's probably because I don't live in Canada. I have a hard time believing hip-hop could ever actually be good, though.

I like a lot hip/hop and rap stuff, and SM is one of my favorites out there right now..

I know a lot of you guys aren't into that kind of stuff, but if you ever do have a chance to see them i suggest you take it up. You just might be pleasantly surprised...

That being said i can't stand Mad Child's voice.. it's just annoying.

Prevail and Moka Only are damn good though imo.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I just got home, I was second from the front (behind the person getting smushed by the bar) for TC and Swollen. Before Prevail came out and freestyled to teh crowd, he was standing on the bar and he looks and me and my friend, bends down and goes "k, your gonna hold on to my hand, and if I fall into the crowd, I'm gonna kick your ass"

hahaha, so ya the two big guys behind me and myself were holding his hand/arm up while he freestyled. It was awesome. Ya they were really good...and TC were amazing as well.

I wish my friend didnt have to go home...the official after party is at The Cabin here in Ottawa, I could be drinking/chilling with the bands and the athletes if I had someone to go with me!
