IDEA 040: Yonge Bay

I’ve been living in Toronto for about a month now and I thought it would only be fitting if I wrote a rap under the moniker Yonge Bay.

Watch out @Champagnepapi I’m coming for your title as Toronto’s most loved rap export.

After my debut, Norm Kelly will be tweeting about me all the time and I’ll get court-side seats to every Raptors game.

So based on my superficial knowledge of Toronto I’ve decided to write this rap:

INTRO:

HEYYYY it’s YONGE BAYYY

HEYYYY SHE’S COMING YOUR WAYYY

FIRST VERSE:

Yo yo yo there’s a new rapper in the 6ix

Get your instagram out so you can take some pics

Catch me before I blow up and take over

It’s better if you listen to my music when you’re not sober

Named after the streets of Toron’nnnnnno

Yonge Bay here not tryna act like a hoe

Wall street ain’t got nothing on me

So transparent there’s no hidden fee

PRE-CHORUS:

Home of the Raptors

The true north strong and free

Home of this rapper

The true star, let me be

CHORUS:

Yonge Bay in the 6ix

Get your daily Fix

Taking over this town

Shit’s ’bout to go down

HEYYYY it’s YONGE BAYYY

HEYYYY SHE’S COMING YOUR WAYYY

SECOND VERSE:

When I say I love the coco

I’m talking about Etobicoke yo

Go to Markham for my people’s food

Gotta try that Fisherman’s lobster dude

Diversity in every corner of the city

Meet my dog his name is Fitty

Take a drive on the Gardiner Express

Walk on King’s Street dress to impress

PRE-CHORUS:

Home of the Raptors

The true north strong and free

Home of this rapper

The true star, let me be

CHORUS:

Yonge Bay in the 6ix

Get your daily Fix

Taking over this town

Shit’s ’bout to go down

HEYYYY it’s YONGE BAYYY

HEYYYY SHE’S COMING YOUR WAYYY

SINGING BREAK DONE BY LOCAL SINGER:

The city where the King and Queen live parallel

I know the directions of streets can’t you tell

CN Tower acts as the north star

If it looks big then you’re not that farrrr

Let’s look at the view from the top

I hope this album doesn’t flop

PRE-CHORUS:

Home of the Raptors

The true north strong and free

Home of this rapper

The true star, let me be

CHORUS:

Yonge Bay in the 6ix

Get your daily Fix

Taking over this town

Shit’s ’bout to go down

HEYYYY it’s YONGE BAYYY

HEYYYY SHE’S COMING YOUR WAYYY

…Soooo yah buy tickets to my Yonge Bay show when they’re only 20 bucks before I start to get really big and famous. At that point I’ll be selling nosebleed tickets for $90 at the now Scotiabank Arena ex-ACC. AND DURGHHH Shawn Mendes will be my opening act…not the other way around I repeat NOT the other way around.
