WHAT A WEEKEND!!! Just as everything started slowing down from the zaniness of May (with all the marches, events and the Treating Yourself Expo) life got super busy (and fun) again. This weekend was the Much Music Video Awards and DJ IV invited me to attend the awards with him, Classified and the rest of the Scotian Crew. I was SUPER flattered! I had never been to the MMVAs but I guess there’s a first time for everything, right. I found out about the invite the week before so I had plenty of time to plan my weekend accordingly. Not only were the MMVAs on Sunday night but Fat Tony, Joey Bada$$, Smif N’ Wessun and Ludacris were also performing at Yonge and Dundas Square.
I LOOOOOOOVE Ludacris! I mean really, who doesn’t?! On top of that, Smif N’ Wessun was also gonna be there so I couldn’t really miss this. My plan was to check out their performances and hopefully smoke a blunt with Luda before I headed to the MMVAs... but that didn’t happen - more on that later.
Sunday was hectic from the moment I opened my eyes. It was Father’s Day and Sebastian wanted us to take his Dad out for lunch. (Although we are not together, we are still friends -c’mon now- we’re adults, not children) so I had to rush around and start getting ready early so we could have a nice relaxing lunch before the real mayhem started. My nails weren’t done, my hair was a mess. I had a few people I had to go meet up with after lunch and before the awards- uggghhh! Stuff had to get done- so stuff got done!
Lunch was over, time for business! I had a few things to catch up on and a couple clients to meet.. and another lunch to have (ok more like super early dinner). Done and done - time to finish getting ready to leave for the day.
I met up with my friend Barb and we headed down to Yonge and Dundas Square. A couple detours later (and a heck of a time trying to find parking) we made it! The square was pretty busy. There was a beer tent to the right of the stage that was surprisingly not that crowded so Barb and I went over there to... well to not be in a crowd (and to get a beverage) I texted my friend Buck from Swagg News and Gorgeous Gangsters and he told me to come meet him at the back of the stage - SAWEEEET! I’d have a comfy place to sit and roll my blunts. Buck met us at the back and had a girl hand us passes. We went and sat in a room backstage and smoked a blunt. Blunt was done, time to roll another. This time I left the room and hung out on the side of the stage for a bit. There I met Fat Tony and a few other artists. I loved their Texan accents. We talked about Canadian cannabis laws vs. American laws, different strains and baking.
Smif N’ Wessun got on stage and started their set. The crowd was hyped and everybody was singing along to their tracks. Towards the end of their set they brought a little boy up on stage and took pictures with him. The look on that child’s face made my day!! I love people that show love back to their fans!! They finished off their set and came backstage again. I was standing by the “bar” at this point talking to the woman working it. She was a fan of CFNY ( she heard me on DBS) so we started elaborating on things I touched base on during my last appearance on the show. She was def a kewl chick! While standing there Steele (Darrell Yates) came up to get a drink. I asked him if he smoked cannabis. He replied “No but my boi does” somehow we started talking about cookies and he said he eats cannabis - just doesn’t smoke it. I told him I put cookies in his room for him. He went in there quickly and then came out with Buck and Tek (Tekomin Williams). Buck introduced me to Tek and we all went back in their room for a bit.They started eating the cookies and then I asked Tek if he wanted to smoke a blunt- he was down! I pulled out some Purple Pain Killer that MedMan of MedMan Brand gave to me a couple days before. I asked him if he’d roll it and handed him a backwoods and the bag. We went out to the side of the stage to check out the show and roll the blunt. While he was rolling up I whipped out my 420 Scope to show him what he was smoking - He LOVED IT!! I swear that scope gets people every time. It shows you what your medicine really looks like, so sexy - drooooool ( I heart cannabis!) We all smoked and chatted away... and then smoked some more.. and chatted some more (y’all know how I do stuff) It was getting late and I had to go. Ludacris was due to be there any minute but I had to get the Much Music to meet up with DJ IV. I thanked Buck for hooking my a$$ up and said my goodbyes to everybody else. There was no time to dwell on missing Luda perform - my friends were waiting for me and I had to get there ASAP!

TAXI!! For some reason getting a taxi wasn’t easy. It was crazy busy downtown. I was getting scared that I was gonna miss Classified’s performance. Thank God I made it on time!!! I met up with DJ IV backstage him and his crew all got ready to perform. They had a bunch of children on stage with them and it was just sooooooooooo effen cute! I love kids. They were all so excited. Classified and the guys went over to give the kids a pep talk before hitting the stage then BAM- they were on! I could barely hear them because the crowd was so loud. I watched their performance from the teleprompter thingie in the back- it was FANTASTIC!
After they finished we went to their private room. On the way to their room I saw a mini nail spa - WHAAAA!?! Mental note: If I ever go back I’m gettin my nails done there... ok back to the story! The room was full of cookies, other munchies and some bottles of liquor and Scotians (LOL). Brian (DJ IV) found me a stemmed glass - cause that’s the ONLY way I’ll drink- and poured me some Black Malibu and cranberry. We all rolled up and then went out to the side deck to medicate. We had to kinda hurry because they were about to go on stage an accept an award. After the joints got put out we quickly went back to the room, grabbed our drinks then went towards the stage to wait for them to go accept their award.

After they got their awards ( Video of the Year and Much Fact Video of the Year) we went back to the room again. We ate cookies, laughed, had drinks - it was AMAZING! We made a couple more visits to the smoking area and then it was time for me to leave. Barb was picking me up to take me to Universal’s afterparty at Uniun. Brian walked me to Barb’s car and I gave him a little gift for a pretty kitty in Nova Scotia that didn’t make it up for the awards ( I loves ya Scotian Kitty!!) Barb had her assistant/friend Juelz in the car with her. I got in and we were off to Uniun
We got in and started shmoozing with other guests. I ran into a ton of people that I hadn’t seen in a while. It was nice to be able to catch up. I’ll be honest, I’m usually really busy so I don’t always have time to catch up.. but I did tonight :) After doing a lap of 2 of the club we went outside to smoke a blunt or 2..... or 3. Who do I see outta the corner of my eye?? Spesh K and Brian! I called them over and we medicated some more. After a while I started getting tired so Barb and I said our goodbyes to everybody and we went home. It was 3:00am and I had to be up at 6:00am the next morning.
I got home and rolled a blunt but it didn’t get smoked. I musta crashed because I woke up and it was still sitting there in my ashtray unlit - FAB! Saved me from having to roll one when I woke up (haha!) As I lied in bed before I rolled my butt outta it I just smiled- it was an incredible weekend! I LOVE LIFE!!
I’d like to thank Brian, The Boyd Brothers, David Myles and the rest of the Scotain crew for all the love and hospitality they show me this weekend AND whenever I see them. They are such down to earth guys. I really truly luv them and their music! ....And as always, thanks to them Gorgeous Gangsters- you’re so good to me! Much appreciated!!
...until the next blog - Lotsa Love!
