Once again, a huge thank you to Obsidian for entrusting me with the Moon Man in Outer Worlds 2! The wait for this limited edition statue of him from Dark Horse was absolutely worth it -the detail is incredible, and he lights up in the dark!

35 year anniversary of the first album. Probably should’ve run it by @dart_adams for exact date, but pretty sure it was in March 1991. Wish I could reassure that kid that it would all turn out fine, but you gotta walk the path, do the math and sometimes feel the wrath before you laugh. Lot of firsts tied up in this too - first major label release, first appearance of K-4ce and D-Shan on wax (yes, there was vinyl, after a prolonged argument…). The stories I really should tell, about how many times it didn’t get released, what the original version of 80 Days sounded like, tour insanity and how I only earned $200 in royalties are long overdue. The upside: every step was necessary to arrive where I’m at today. So I am beyond grateful and deeply humbled to have had the opportunity. Oh, and apologies for no music…it’s unfortunately not available on streaming (again, another story). But feel free to take a listen to joints like Clutch Pop or Mantra.
Had to wait until I could unbox this properly - a huge, gigantic, lunar-sized THANK YOU to Joe Fielder for sending this signed Outer Worlds 2 poster - the perfect Christmas present! It was an incredible honor to be the voice of the Moon Man, and grateful to have been a part of this amazing team! Huge thank you to Obsidian for trusting me with this wonderful character, to Rob at Green Street, Rebound Sound, and of course my family CESD for believing in me. Now, to get this framed…

Proof that I actually venture out of doors:
Huge thank you to Bo Crutcher for inviting me to the Inner City Arts Creative Career fair to talk to kids about what we do in video game production. Despite the rain, amazing turnout, and left super inspired by those kids (got a dope vinyl bag too).
The Raekwon/Mobb Deep show? Madness. Toronto family from time Jon Ramos gave me tickets but in true Kishino fashion, my phone died, so I didn’t get to link with everyone.
The J-Screen event was great - don’t know how I got on the list, but grateful to be included. Saw Yumi Takada, Kei Kawamura and Masonobu Boo Motokawa speak about casting, and Aleks Le said some really beautiful about developing characters in VO. Thank you to Michelle Sugihara for including me!
Caught my bro Mark Lewis in the unbelievably dynamic, brilliant Tarantino Live at CineVita - it’s on again in January, so if you haven’t seen it, go.
And In-N-Out, because I believe in myself.

Happy 1 year anniversary to Marvel Rivals! It’s been an incredible honor to voice Hawkeye right out the gate! Thought I’d share one of my favorite Marvel Rivals items, the Dark Horse Direct book “The Art of Marvel Rivals”! Can’t recommend highly enough.
Huge thanks to NetEase, Brightskull, and of course to my family - CESD Talent. Here’s to many more Marvel Rivals years!
Oh, and remember…I never miss.

Beyond honored, humbled and amped to be a part of this masterpiece of a game - Ghost of Yotei, out now!
Erika Ishii as Atsu is a force, and everyone you’ll see and hear brought the heat - it was powerful, moving and beautiful to witness their performances. So grateful and glad to have gathered new family on this, and strengthened the bonds with long time fam. The gameplay is phenomenal, the narrative is riveting and the visuals are stunning.
Thank you so much to everyone at Sucker Punch, to Ivy Isenberg, Amanda Wyatt and CESD for letting me be a part of this!

Where my Marvel Rivals fam at? Hope everyone is enjoying playing, and remember…Hawkeye never misses.

An incredible honor to be on The Vision Is Possible podcast last week with Phil and Iona Morris - Hollywood royalty from a family of Hollywood royalty (do the knowledge!). Humbled to be able to call them colleagues as well as fam. We caught up, talked artistic process, gratitude and perseverance in the face of adversity. That convo could’ve gone on for hours. Love the both of you!
And you know me - I’m gonna big up the place where I’m from, and the family I’m fortunate to be a part of. Hip hop til infinity over here. The forever fam Michie Mee, Maestro Fresh Wes, Ghetto Concept, Kardinal, Dan-e-o, Saukrates, the Dream Warriors…the list goes on. Humbled and grateful to be part of Toronto hip hop history, and making moves every day to make the hometown proud.
