This Is Epic: Maestro Fresh Wes releases new music to celebrate Raptors championship

Canadian icon Maestro Fresh Wes has released new music inspired by the Toronto Raptors winning their first ever NBA Championship.

“This Is Epic” was produced by frequent Maestro collaborator, LordQuest, and written the day after the team won the title. After winning the past two consecutive titles and heading for their fifth straight NBA Finals appearance, the favoured Golden State Warriors were ousted in 6 games by Canada’s team. Final score in Game 6: Raptors 114, Warriors 110.

“‘This Is Epic’ captivates the emotion of all Toronto as well as Canadian sports fans.”

Maestro has never been a stranger to big, timely sports anthems. His singles, “Reach For The Sky” (featuring Classified and Blue Rodeo) and “The Distance” (featuring Classified and Blue Rodeo) were featured throughout the Olympics, 2014 Winter and 2016 Summer, respectively.

As an actor, Maestro’s role as teacher Paul Dwyer in CBC’s hit show Mr. D came to an end with Part 2 of 2 of the series finale airing back in December. Expect to see him back in another role in the future.

“This Is Epic” is available for streaming below via YouTube. Maestro’s latest album is available now on all major streaming platforms.
