Tom MacDonald was On Da Grine TV with Valentine

Tom MacDonald performed a tribute song "How The West Was Won" to the lost lives in Paris attacks that occurred on November 13, 2015.
We’ve all heard people label themselves as visionaries, but never has the self-proclamation been so true as in Tom MacDonald’s case.
Anyone who is familiar with Tom’s work would be doing him a great disfavour by classifying him as a ‘rapper’. More accurately described as wildly creative, his artistry is not limited to the confines of musical genres, but instead lends itself to the cultivation of a brand new sound. His “ultra-modern” hybrid of styles is immediately identifiable and unlike anything currently on the North American scene. Tom is revered as a visionary by those lucky enough to have experienced his intensely off-kilter visuals. Not only a talented musician; Tom sacrifices the traditional “performance-style” videos to make way for “short-film-music-videos” that put his acting strengths on display . Tom writes, directs and edits all of his own visuals. Additionally, Tom is also the sole composer and producer of all his music. It seems as though Tom is a bottomless creative well.

The only thing this guy is good at is being a poser using other artists lyrics in his songs and the biggest grim of all making sure he says the words American flag in a song 30 times and that's all people hear the worst thing of all is half the people that are like all just so great yourself patriotic he's such a Canadian he can't even vote in the United States American presidential or any other kind of election

[@derekchristianson6675]

When Valentine asked him, "What can you tell [young artists] to say on the grind?" If Tom said, 'Don't look down' I was going to loose my mind...but he did say "Do you." Don't Look Down [2021] - "All I can do is keep being myself and that's what I been doing for thirty-two years."

Tom writes some bad ass lyrics that speaks truth. His interview was straight and to the point. Many would think its corny what he said but it doesn't get more real than that. It's something most people need to hear including myself. I've noticed the truth doesn't come out much because people are afraid of opinions or mistakes (that also includes me). This world can be so controlling if one lets it.

This interview is a lesson in being yourself. Back then it's clear he was still just trying to fit in and do what he thought other people would like, but he also knew that he should be being authenticly him. Fast forward a few years and look at him now, he's got it all figured out, he found himself and his true voice. No hate here Tom, nobody starts out doing things perfectly, everything has a learning curve, even being your best self.

[@HistorySkate]

Say what you want about him but I see a very passionate artist.

[@njper123]

HistorySkate This much I agree. But I can’t fuck with his delivery. I find it corny. Dude need to stop being preachy

[@nonsagashus_The_Gamecat]

AceOfSpades What you call “preachy” I call “passionate”. Hip Hop used to be about the uplifting of a struggling humanity. More preachy is what today’s hip hop needs. All the best artists from Tupac, KRS-1, etc all the way to classic underground like Rhymesayers and Sage Francis could be called “preachy”... was always the best hip hop.

[@njper123]

NonsaGashus The Gamecat Your kind of hiphop is one dimensional and limiting. It’s not exciting, it doesn’t punch a hole in the system or a crack in the pavement... it poses as something so wise and intelligent... but what it really is doing is simply posing. Tupac and krs were preaching in their rhymes but there was sincerity in it. Lest we forget 2pac knew how to cut loose and get ignorant af too! Rap is about expression... we need different ppl expressing in diff ways. This Ronald McDonald dude is corny and preachy, his style over played. If you are impressed by this.. you are too easily impressed. All it takes is some obvious preachy shit and bam! You are in heaven. That’s not good for creativity.

[@nonsagashus_The_Gamecat]

AceOfSpades I like how you ignored my Rhymesayers mention... Eyedea, Brother Ali, Slug, etc; none of this is one sided. Not to mention Sage Francis. Tom MacDonald is taking important stories and lyricism and finding a way to put that into our current, terrible, modern rap style... and meshes them smoothly. I’m sorry, but he is the best lyricist that uses today’s style.

[@njper123]

NonsaGashus The Gamecat Can’t believe you are putting Eyedea and this dude in the same sentence... but ok. They are miles apart. One’s a certified legend the other is an up and coming rapper. And no... he is not the best at bringing lyricism and modern rap together. I’d suggest you listen to Isaiah Rashad
