Choclair, Rapper

Scarborough rap superstar Choclair talks about coming up together with Jully Black, Kardinal Offishall and Saukrates, morphing from ‘Junior’ to ‘Choclair’ [and how he got that name], literally getting called out of the classroom to rep his high school in rap battles, his appreciation for MuchMusic’s Michael Williams & Master T, the bump from the Little X-directed ‘Let’s Ride’ video, using paper-scissors-rock to determine his role in the recording of ‘Northern Touch,’ growing up listening to the ‘godfather of Toronto hip-hop’ DJ Ron Nelson on CKLN 88.1, and touring tales with Snoop Dogg, Mix Master Mike & Beastie Boys, Classified, Maestro Fresh Wes, Redman and Method Man!

TORONTO LEGENDS is hosted by Andrew Applebaum.
