ATSIC Radar 620

New release Canadian Hip Hop that dropped on or before May 16, 2025.

I pay as much attention to the national scene as I can, but if I’m missing something, let me know. I can’t vouch for everything on this list, it’s just a round up of everything that drops, so listening through and deciding what I like and dislike is part of the fun. I do remove a few tracks as I go through, these playlists always start with more music than they end with. I try not to be too judgmental, and keep in mind that I’m not always the target audience. I also know that artists who make a song I dislike might make a song I do like the next week. I appreciate artists who release a lot of music, and never want to dissuade anyone from putting their works into the world. I’m not trying to gate-keep anything. Everyone should like what they like, I’m just picking what I like and having some laughs, but it’s not that serious.

I usually stream while I listen to the entire playlist, so if you want to come through and hear what I have to say about each song live, hit Twitch.tv/doobyis on Fridays or over the weekend afternoons. This week I listened to the first 60 songs on the drive home from long weekend camping. I wasn’t going to inflict 7 hours of unheard indie rappers on the campfire over the weekend, but my wife knew what she was getting into when she married me. There were a few parts that got muted out from the Wednesday catch up stream where I finished the playthrough, so congrats to the artists who are on their game enough to have the Twitch algo recognize it. Those got cut out in the video below.

Every week I pick the tracks that I like most, buy them, and play them on my show “After The Smoke Is Clear” (#ATSIC) - which you can listen to for free by clicking here.
