The 6ix is waiting on that new Drizzy drop! 🦉❄️
We took Stu on the Street right into downtown Toronto to see what fans are expecting from Drake’s highly anticipated album, Ice Man. From full 15-track rap masterpieces to wishlists packed with Lil Wayne features, the city is officially in its feelings. 🇨🇦🔊

Nobody said being a Media Director was easy 😭🎙️
Here's what they don't show you behind the scenes of Stu Explores -the 15 takes, the wrong venue names, the chaotic hand gestures, and the very professional "this is not good" moments 🎬
Spoiler: Yasmin called The Garrison "Baby G" at least once. They are NOT the same place. She knows that now. 😅
The final video? Polished. The journey to get there? Absolutely unhinged.
This is CFRE Radio. The Future of Radio, one blooper at a time 📻
Follow us @cfreradio for the good stuff AND the chaos 👇

The energy at Departure 2026 was off the charts! 📈🔥
We took over Lee’s Palace for an Artist Showcase that proved why Toronto is the epicenter of the new sound. From the heavy riffs of Chastity to the high-voltage sets from Smug, Concrete Vehicles, and Cam Kahin, the future of music is loud, proud, and right here in the 6ix.🎙️
Which of these sets was your favorite? Let us know who’s on your radar for the summer! 👇

POV: Scarborough just took over the entire Billboard chart 🇨🇦🎙️
On this day in 2020, NAV dropped Good Intentions and made history. Number one on the Billboard 200. Number one on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Number one on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart.
All. At. The. Same. Time.
A kid from Scarborough, Toronto. An independent sound. A city that built him. Six years later, and we still feel it. 🖤
This is CFRE Throwback — because The Future of Radio never forgets where the music comes from. 📻 Don't forget to follow us for more music facts!

We’ve seen the Baby G, and now it’s time to meet the older sibling. 🤘
This week on Stu Explores, we’re back on Dundas West at the legendary Garrison. Since 2009, this spot has been the ultimate leveling-up ground for Toronto indie talent. 🇨🇦🔊 From a chill front bar to a back room with a brand new Meyer Sound system, they take the “vibe check” seriously here. 🎙️🔥
Did you know the name comes from a buried river? 🌊 Grab a drink and let’s dive into the liquid gold of the 6ix! Don’t forget to follow CFRE Radio for more!

Ever wondered why Russell Peters is THE guy representing Canada in the States? 🇨🇦
We caught up with the legend himself at Departure 2026, and he broke down the "racial loophole" that makes him the industry’s favorite Canadian export. From Jim Carrey to Seth Rogen, Russell explains why he’s the fair, current representation of The True North!
It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s pure comedy gold. Catch the full vibe from the front row! 🎟️
