David: Ron Dias x Way Past Love (Album Trailer)

Ron Dias

Just the other day we came in contact with Ron Dias, a rapper out of Toronto. He introduced us to his album trailer and a few other songs he had done and after listening to the first I was already in love with what I was hearing. This guy carries with him his own distinct and unique mix of old school and a love for music that is rooted in him.

In 2005, Ron began to chase the spotlight and joined Brothers From Different Mothers, a band who’s music only boosted Ron’s already eclectic and diverse style. Fusing multiple sounds from grimy hip hop to deep soul and live band. Brothers From Different Mothers competed and won in the Emergenza Festival’s Battle of the Bands in year claiming title for Best Band in Ontario. After many shows at big Toronto venues such as Nathan Phillips Square, Dundas Square, Queens Park, Revival Nightclub, and performances at University of Toronto, York University, Centennial College, Mc Master University, Ryerson University, Ron began tasting a little bit of a solo artist’s career. In March 2008 Ron was sent to California to perform at an industry jam with reps from Vibe magazine, Universal, Sony, BMG where he schooled the crowd with some of his solo material.

By the fall of 2008 Ron put out his first radio single, his ode "Toronto" featuring Blake Carrington. Along with this track came an equally authentic music video, which is attached below, representing what Toronto means to him. Check out his upcoming album trailer, Way Past Love, and his single "Toronto," below:
