Most of the year, we are a five-day-a-week blog, at most.
In #MapleLeafMarch, there's too much content for five days. So, we step it up to all seven. This is why we're posting on a Sunday.
Today, we're going back to the 1990s. No, wait, this song was released in 2022. I'm sorry. I just heard the song and I thought for sure that it must have been from the 1990s, given the sound I was hearing.
No, DVSN (formerly dvsn - not a joke) are a modern duo, active since 2016 and signed to Drake's label. Drake wasn't even on DeGrassi in the 90's yet. The sound sure does bring back memories of 90's R&B, but the freestyle feel points more to modern hip-hop, so I guess it's a fusion piece.

The duo themselves are pretty renowned in their own right, with one half of them being the producer behind some of Drake's biggest hits, which is probably why Nineteen85 has a few Grammy nominations (and a win, for Best Rap Song - "Hotline Bling", which he co-wrote and produced- in 2017) in the past on top of the Juno nomination for DVSN this year.
Also, they're Canadian. I feel like I have to say that. This video was clearly filmed in Toronto, their hometown.
