Tona Releases New Single and Music Video “OWTS”
Rising Toronto rapper Tona has released his new single “OWTS.” The single title, which stands for “On With The Show,” is the final single from his upcoming project, HOTC (Henny On The Congregation).
“OWTS” is about going on with life’s challenges despite its pushbacks that come at seemingly the wrong times. The song starts off by jokingly calling for Emmy-nominated actress Tracee Ellis Ross but then serves commanding bars about moving on.
The rapper states that the song is used to pay homage to the legendary Kardinal Offishall, who produced the track.
“This song serves as a homage to heralded city legend, producer, and artist Kardinal Offishall,” Tona said of the rapper and producer per a press release. “[Kardinal] originally released “On Wit Da Show” in 1997. The production just gave me close to the same feel as the original and instantly had me wanting to echo the same sentiments, throughout all the ups and downs through the career trials, On with the show!”
“OWTS” follows “Fame,” the third single, which was released in September. Tona is set to release his new album HOTC (Henny On The Congregation) at the end of the year.

Producer DEAD PERRY revampsrecent White Crown single with an extended Pt. II edition. Originally appearing on legendary Hieroglyphics crew member Casual’s Fights Over Egypt EP the track also featured deft cuts by DJ Eclipse (Rap Is Outta Control, Non-Phixion). Possessing a sinister and sinewy horn laden soundscape, DEAD PERRY creates an instrumental backing as deep as the historic knowledge that Casual drops over it. The producer also tapped Cali Agent extraordinaire Planet Asia to bring additional wisdom in this extended version.
