The Dream of the Eighties is Alive in Toronto

The dream of the nineties may be alive in Portland, but here in Accordion City, some of us — seen recently on Queen Street West, just west of John — are about the eighties. Specifically, the funktastic eighties.

In these guys’ honour, I’ve included some fine jams from 1989 by Toronto hip-hop artists. Let your backbone slide!
