“Meet success like a gentleman, and meet disaster like a man.” –

For
years, Toronto’s most thorough artist has been waiting in the shadows of the
corner office, preparing for this moment. Aspektz, more affectionately known as Mr. Thoro or
Ontario Banderas,
began writing and recording in his formative years, mixing the eclectic palette
of sounds he was bombarded with in a packed house. At 6 years old, he was
knocking on neighborhood doors to perform for every child’s currency - candy.
By the time he was 13, the stage shifted and he was peddling mixtapes at high
school dances across Ontario. It became clear early on to everyone around him
that, although the leader of the True
Thorobredz was gifted in the art of business, it was the
art behind this business that would lead him to his dreams.
Born
on December 9th,
1985, Mr. Thoro was a unique child.
Raised by two hardworking parents, business was always the order of the day. His father, a blues and rock enthusiast,
would spend dinner explaining the complexities of entrepreneurialism,
leadership and integrity, drilling the merit of independence into Aspektz young mind. It was only
natural, from these experiences, that he would blend his passion for writing
music with the business of entertainment, thus creating the True Thorobredz.
After
releasing his first single from Academic
Probation through iTunes, entitled In The
TDot, it quickly became apparent that the young CEO’s investments were
about to pay dividends. Aspektz catapulted
his momentum exponentially with the follow-up, Fresh, a manifesto for all things unique, crisp and clean. Next up was the reggae-infused smash I Love Your Style. The Rich Kidd produced masterpiece unveiled Ontario Banderas’ lustful desires to find Lady Thoro and
simultaneously set the charts, and women’s hearts, on fire.
The
Academic Probation era is
poised to begin in the fall of 2010 with a flurry of mixtapes and viral
content. Birthing electro-hop, a distinct style to represent Canada internationally,
the Boardroom Bully has emerged as a
leader in a scene of desperately in need of a shepherd. With his wingtips shined and his French
cuffs rolled up, the industry better get an understanding of all things Aspektz or prepare for a hostile takeover.
