The Block on CBC
Canada’s new home for Black music on radio with host @msangelinetw.

Head over to CBC Listen to hear her full interview with @msangelinetw
What are you so afraid of? What’s the worst that could happen? There’s no such thing as failure when you’re chasing your passion •
I had the pleasure of chatting with @msangelinetw on @theblockcbc about my new album, GABRIEL.
We explored many of the themes found within the album in a very introspective and refreshing way
Make sure to check out the full interview on @cbc_music
@machelmontano, the King of Soca, says the purpose of soca is “both a blessing and a curse.”
He isn’t just widely credited with bringing soca music to the global stage — he also has a deep knowledge of the genre’s roots and the history of Carnival, earning a master’s degree in Carnival Studies from the University of Trinidad and Tobago.
His new documentary, Like Ah Boss: Journey of a Soca King, traces his extraordinary 40-year career, from child star in Trinidad to global icon.
In his conversation with @tomjoepower, @machelmontano reflects on the history and meaning of Carnival. 🎧Find his full interview on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. 🔗Link in bio.
After months of cryptic teasers, @champagnepapi finally released his new album, Iceman, along with two surprise albums.

A new anthem is set to soundtrack Canada's pro women's soccer league — and it's coming straight from one of its players.
Tiffany Cameron, a forward with Halifax Tides FC, is stepping off the field and into the studio with Victory, the official anthem for the 2026 season of the Northern Super League.
The high-energy track is a collaboration with Juno-nominated artist Jah'Mila, blending Cameron's hip-hop style with Jah'Mila’s signature reggae sound.
"I hope fans listen to it and get pumped up," said Cameron, whose artist name is Tiff. "I wanted the song to have a lot of energy and for people to feel the music and want to sing along, rap along as well."
But Victory is more than a hype song. It's a reflection of the journey behind women's soccer in Canada.
"It's about overcoming adversity. It's about fighting for what you think is right, fighting for yourself, you know — as in women's soccer, it's a little bit more challenging," Cameron explained.
Her lyrics refer to the Tides and the other league teams, while shouting out Diana Matheson and Christine Sinclair for their influence and leadership in the sport.
"Those two have advocated big time for women's football. So I wanted to highlight them," she said.
For Jah'Mila, who's Jamaican born, the project carried its own personal weight.
She recorded parts of the track while undergoing chemotherapy — a challenge she says made the collaboration even more meaningful.
Despite difficult moments, she says working with Cameron kept her grounded and focused.
"Tiffany is full of energy … and really steered the path forward."
Now with treatments behind her, Jah'Mila is envisioning Victory as more than just a song. A locker-room anthem.
A crowd chant. A celebration of resilience.
Victory will play in stadiums across the country and during broadcasts, amplifying not just the game, but the voices behind it.
Cameron's teammates, meanwhile, are happy to see a Halifax player in the spotlight.
