Landed in East van and crossed town with my homegirl Lahdi Dahdi to pick up equipment for Raw SpeakHers freestyle collective. We got to recording a new track directly and some of the ladies came by to lay verses. The crew is equipped now for workshops and small venues and could even come to your school. So super stoked this group is becoming such an amazing movement. #rawspeakhers #doityourself #diy #selfsufficient #portable #speakers #homestudio #recording #verses #harmonies #toolsforwork #bethechange #workshops #live #microphones (at East Van)

Had to get a last minute spicy eggplant dish at the local Chinese restaurant before leaving Montreal. Mmmm food you are so tasty here. Outstanding international cuisine all through the city. My Fortune cookie had a sweet note inside and I love those numbers. Perfect ... // Your present plans/projects will succeed // #fortunecookie #goodsign #gratitude #goodluck #enfrancais (at Montreal, Quebec)
