This was my first time seeing Dead Obies at RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017. They are an experimental hip hop band originating from South Shore, Quebec. Seeing all 6 members on the Blacksheep Inn stage is quite something to see.
Ottawa’s Blakdenim played at RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017. Performing on the Claridge Homes Stage with their blend of hip-hop, funk, rock and soul. Got the audience moving and shaking in the nice hot weather!
Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals was one of the big highlights on Day 8 of RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017. Wasn’t as crazy as the night before. Anderson had a lot of stage presence and the music was great to listen and dance around.
From one rap/hip-hop act to another, across the stage was Lil Yachty during RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017.. Another late start for this set since Migos came on late. It was around 8:45pm that Lil Yachty ran on stage exciting the audience with his music. There was an incident that he fell (or sunk) into the …

Ending off day 3 of RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017 was no other than 50 Cent who was accompanied by G-Unit. A huge turnout of crowds came out partying and dancing to his music. While it seems like the songs he was singing were like medleys/mixtape styles from P.I.M.P to Candy Shop and In Da Club. …
Wow! It’s been awhile for Ottawa’s hip-hop/rap act Flight Distance. They were performing on the City Stage at RBC Ottawa Bluesfest 2017. The show started off with the lovely vocals of Whitney Delion (formerly of Sound of Lions) and then it was then hip-hop with materials from their upcoming album.
