The Prairies

The Canadian Prairies Editorial team is headed up by Amalia Judith and is comprised of various members of the Canadian Prairies scene. If you are interested in joining the Prairies team or in getting your story covered, please contact Amalia at ajudith@hiphopcanada.com. Please note that all submissions must be accompanied by a press release, bio and 450-pixel width photo. Video submissions need to have the videographer and director’s credits and web links, plus a still shot. We like to tell stories, so please tell us yours: community work you do, people you are inspired by, how your environment has affected the way you make your music.
