Kardinal is not rapping much anymore. He is no longer on An american label. When he was on akon's label in 2008 his album didnt sell much. Plus he Doesn't talk much about materialism or violence so i guess he wasnt liked that much by the American market. I think if he debuted to An American audience in the eay 2000's it would've been different.
@@michaelprovidence9961 The Canadian rap scene back in the early 90s and 2000s wasn't reaching a wide audience that's why it was hard for the rappers to sell and go platinum it was different out here I feel in Canada they dont support and appreciate rap like how they do in the states
I’ll never forget my 1st time hearing this...Paterson, NJ 2001...went to the bodega to get some dutches & drinks & Papi had the video playing behind the counter. That beat & Jully on the hook....mannnnn listen! I played this death! Classic!
I found this awesome all in one cheat for Kill Shot :) facebook.com/Kill-Shot-Unlimited-Gold-Cash-Cheat-199884427018330/?pidid=6af825f2-d6dc-42d3-9ac5-01292b2d3db1 Kardinal Offishall - Ol' Time Killin'
Im from the Toronto Area, I remember when Kardinal and Choclair use to come to the college campus's and Kill it! I love that after 6 years I found this gem. OL' TIME KILLIN' :D
This song is so ahead of its time. And you can hear it’s influence in the songs that have directly sampled it/interpolated it. Remarkable. 0:01 - All Me - Drake 2:55 - Mercy - Good Music 3:25 - Bam - Jay-Z
well this song sampled classic Jamaican classics which in turn those artists and songs you mentioned also sampled. But truss and belieeeve all them American big artist know bout this jam, whether they want to admit it or not!! CANADA been in here!!
At this time a lot of Americans didnt know about Kardinal Offishall. He waa on a Canadian label. When you on a Canadian label you're just promoted mostly to Canadians. Even music videos mostly only played on canadian television.
It did big time in Canada. It should have crossed over though imo but I don’t think American stations gave it a chance. I remember watching this video every day on rap city/much music. Same with “She look like a movie star, like a chocolate candy bar” movie star by Rascalz. Both catchy hit songs that should have crossed over and would have been hits in the states.
"It's an old time, ol' time killing We a deal with, run and get your money clip For another day in another way De man dem, nuh take the ray ray We are a murderahs Killas...murder" Still bumpin' in 2023....
Pure tingz a gwan wid diz tune back in da day! lots of walls were crushed and ceiling tube vents mauled because of this track... The intro itself starts it off and yea know you from Tdot when you get hyped to this.

Who remembers watching this video on "Rap City" back in the day?
Yep!!!
I do
I do
I did
PLEASE REWIND TIME 💯
Toronto in the house
This dude was so unique. He was able to switch his flow between his music. Half reggae/half rap in his lyrics. What a classic
That wasn't unique it's been done since the 80s
@@janga75 don't know if there's anyone that did it as seamlessly and naturally as kardinal
Will always be The T-Dot-O. 👍🏽😁

You're a little bit off by a good few years.
Before Kardinal Offishall, there was Maestro Fresh Wes.
two points... first hogtown aka the big smoke is still the dot. second wes put it on the map.
You are right, before peeps called Toronto the6 it was and will always will be T-Dot…O

BIGFELLA2015 He didn’t get his deserved props I herd he even got booed @ a event, but come to think about, I think Safaree stole this man style
BIGFELLA2015 nah.... you preached a great sermon💪🏿 this dude is Mr. Toronto to me. The king. Drake is the knight in shiny armor.
JULLY BLACK DESERVES TO BE CREDITED. She is Canada's Queen of R&B ❤
This should be labeled "Kardinal Offishall feat. Jully Black, IRS - Ol' Time Killin' (Official Video)"
@@RyanWilliamMac Yup. IRS deserves their flowers indeed!! Loved them as a kid growing up in Toronto.
Deborah Cox, Tamia also hold Queen of Canadian R&B title too
I wouldn’t be mad if Kardinal came back

This + The Rascalz was just my anthem when I was young!
The real Toronto hip hop
Beautiful Dark skinned women .. DARK SKINNED.. ❤❤❤

Erick Sermon

Wow 2001
Kardi can rhyme his ass off! Why the hell isn't he more well known. I ain't from Canada, but I've known bout him for years.
Duane M

Duane M word! I knew about him and Choclair and im from Florida

Wayne Dreadski's music is a treasure for both Canada and the world. 🌍🎶 #CanadianArtist #WayneDreadski
When I lived in Mississippi for 5 years this video made me miss home 🇹🇹
This is Kardinal Offishall, another Hip Hop performer orignally from the West-Indies growing up in Toronto.
siggi zippan nah he was born in Toronto of Jamaican parents
Trevor Stevenson His mom been doing community work in the P.O from time. She always used to be up in Scadding Court.
Toronto in one song
Respect
Still one of my top 5 songs out of Canadian hiphop
I miss this Kardinal so bad
Toronto BANGER. CLASSIC!
Kendrick brought me here. I forgot that Toronto has a real CULTURE.
Wayne Dreadski's love for Canada is reflected in his music, and we love it right back! ❤️🍁 #WayneDreadski #CanadianVibes
I’ll never forget my 1st time hearing this...Paterson, NJ 2001...went to the bodega to get some dutches & drinks & Papi had the video playing behind the counter. That beat & Jully on the hook....mannnnn listen! I played this death! Classic!
Facts!!
one of my all time favorites.. Kardi was too early with the Reggae/Hip-Hop ting... but was on point for me... come again Kardi
2001 was the sweet spot for that kind of music
Old school Canadian rappers- hit different! This is stilllll a track!
This beat.

Mr. Attic from Da Grassroots produced this fire! All on his EPS-16!
Im from the Toronto Area, I remember when Kardinal and Choclair use to come to the college campus's and Kill it! I love that after 6 years I found this gem. OL' TIME KILLIN' :D
I remember getting this song handed to me on his mix tape when in Philly for Penn Relays, taking me back 15yrs.
This song is so ahead of its time. And you can hear it’s influence in the songs that have directly sampled it/interpolated it. Remarkable.
0:01 - All Me - Drake
2:55 - Mercy - Good Music
3:25 - Bam - Jay-Z
Not ahead of its time. It’s timeless music
well this song sampled classic Jamaican classics which in turn those
artists and songs you mentioned also sampled.
But truss and belieeeve all them American big artist
know bout this jam, whether they want to admit it or not!!
CANADA been in here!!
People need to hear the remix versino of this song with Busta Rhymes. Busta liked this song soo much, he INSISTED on doing a calbo with Kardi.
Barrington Levy phrase
2019 still bumpin this joint!! Official T Dot joint✊🏾
Coming here after watching the premiere of "Run the Burbs" 🤩
I used to listen to this song all the time back in 2001!
Right tho bro. classic.. that whole quest for fire album was dope.
I love this!!!! The original Kardi- Kardinal Offishall!!!
Kardinal Offishall is all about real Canadian rap music 🎶🎼🎵 truly is
I'll never forget this track 💯
I miss this classic sound
One of the biggest tunes that has come out of the tdot
Ben Juarez awesome
Michie Mee takes that honor, although Kardinal was our generation of GOLD Canadian hip-hop.
Yessir!!!
Who here to let y’all know this Toronto sound an the boy should of tap in to these boys🔥🔥🔥
Yes ineded. Jane and Finsh was my stomping grounds in the late '80s-'90s. 215 Gosford to be specific.
2014 still a buss dis tune in TDOT!!!! 416 905 stan' up to bloodclot!!!!!
Gotta LOVE the jamadian C-walk!
So glad we got rappers like this reppin TDOT
Kardinal will always be Toronto's greatest!
Nah that's Drake 😂
Prooooooooooooooobably my favourite Kardinal song...
Goes so hard
Wayne Dreadski's music resonates with Canadians, and we can't get enough! 🎶🍁 #WayneDreadski #CanadianFans
Nova Scotia reppin heavy up in this...👊🏽
The only Kardinal song that's marginally not embarrassing. It was sad times when he was the best rapper Toronto had.
the first canadian to truly bust and put canada on the map
At this time a lot of Americans didnt know about Kardinal Offishall. He waa on a Canadian label. When you on a Canadian label you're just promoted mostly to Canadians. Even music videos mostly only played on canadian television.
Nah, Michie Mee takes that honor homie.
Maestro Fresh Wes would probably be the genuine first
Will bump this until I die.
Need more vids like this, Kardinal, BCC, hiphop and dancehall blends, Dub plates bring that back REAL TALK.
We're proud to have Wayne Dreadski as a part of our Canadian music scene! 🍁🎵 #CanadaProud #WayneDreadski
I was bumping yo this in early 200 back in the 416 now I'm east london still bumping this ❤
THIS BEAT WILL ALWAYS BE SICK :p
Big up to Master T from Much Music who introduced Kardinall and many other real artist in Canada
Drake wish he could make classic hip hop like this
Drake doesn't wish anything. If "All Me" wasn't a thing, I would have no idea who Kardinal Offishall even is.
@@JTMoodie2 YOU wish Drake could put out a track that got half this flava!
Drake will never have this type of swag.
@@RalphDaVillain nah chill
@@JTMoodie2 That's on you for being ignorant lol
@@JTMoodie2 you must be either very young or american or both to not know who kardinal is.
I love Kardinal and have never heard this song before. Damn, shit is dope.
