Get to know: The.97, Toronto's most prolific director

With over two hundred music videos directed in a single year and a growing creative empire, The.97 has become a defining force in Canadian visual culture. His work with artists like Coi Leray, Fridayy, Chris Brown and Yung Bleu has earned international recognition, and his influence continues to expand far beyond Toronto. We sat down with him to talk about his journey, his creative discipline and what it takes to build a legacy in today’s visual landscape.

Rolling Stone: You recently did a panel with Gary Vee’s VaynerMedia at their New York office. That is a major crossover moment between creativity and business. How did that come together, and what was that experience like for you?

The.97: Gary DM’d me personally one day, completely out of the blue. It caught me off guard because I had followed his content for years, and seeing him recognize my work meant a lot. He invited me to his New York office, and that visit turned into something much bigger. I met Mike Boyd and the whole Vayner team, and it instantly felt like I was in a room full of people who understood brand storytelling and creative scale. After that, they brought me to Cannes for their events, and that experience shifted my mindset. You see how the biggest agencies in the world think and how they connect art and commerce seamlessly. It was validating and inspiring. It reminded me that Toronto creativity belongs on that same world stage.

Cops Who Falsified Warrant Used in Breonna Taylor Raid Didn’t Cause Her Death, Judge Rules

Cops Who Falsified Warrant Used in Breonna Taylor Raid Didn’t Cause Her Death, Judge Rules

A federal judge in Kentucky ruled that two police officers accused of falsifying a warrant ahead of the deadly raid that killed Breonna Taylor were not responsible for her death, The Associated Press reports. And rather than the phony warrant, U.S. District Judge Charles Simpson said Taylor’s boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, was responsible for her death because he fired upon the police officers first — even though he had no idea they were police officers.

The ruling was handed down earlier this week in the civil rights violation case against former Louisville Police Detective Joshua Jaynes and former Sgt. Kyle Meany. The two were not present at the March 2020 raid when Taylor was killed. Instead, in 2022, Attorney General Merrick Garland accused the pair (along with another detective, Kelly Goodlett) of submitting a false affidavit to search Taylor’s home before the raid and then conspiring to create a “false cover story… to escape responsibility” for preparing the phony warrant.

Meet the Nigerian Creators Going Global

Meet the Nigerian Creators Going Global

In June, Nigerian comedian Isaac Olayiwola — known as Layi Wasabi on TikTok and Instagram, where he has more than 3 million combined followers — took his first trip to London. There, he had his beloved skit character “the Law” endure U.K. hijinks as if it was his first time as well. In one skit, the Law — a soft spoken but mischievous lawyer who can’t afford an office — bumps into a local, played by British-Congolese creator Benzo The1st. In sitcom fashion, the Law breaks the fourth wall to wave at an invisible but audible studio audience as Benzo watches on, confused and offended. In another, Olayiwola links with longtime internet comedy creator and British-Nigerian actor Tolu Ogunmefun to have the Law intervene in the relationship of a wannabe gangster and his fed up girlfriend. In another, he goes to therapy complaining that he can’t find clients in London (“Everything seems to work here in the U.K.”).

Olayiwola wasn’t in London just to film content — it was a reconnaissance mission, too, sitting for interviews and testing ­­stand-up sets to see how his humor might translate. After breaking out as one of Lagos’ most popular creators, he’s set on becoming a top comic — not just in his region, but in the world.

‘Black Myth: Wukong’ Is a Hit. But Why Is the Game So Controversial?

The expectations for Black Myth: Wukong have been sky-high since its first reveal back in 2020, which teased an action RPG with breathtaking graphics, set in a world based on the classic Chinese novel “Journey to the West” with a Dark Souls-style wrapping. After six years of development by independent studio Game Science, Black Myth: Wukong was released on Aug. 20 for PC and PS5, causing a stir in terms of sheer number of players amassed in just a few days.

At the time of writing, there are over 2.1 million concurrent players on Steam alone, as well as 132,000 viewers on Twitch watching dozens of streamers playing it. Black Myth: Wukong is, based on numbers alone, a rampant success. Beyond the stats, critical reception paints a mixed picture of a game mired in technical issues on the PC version, and multiple controversies surrounding both its development and the days around launch.

Here Are the People Who Lost Millions Backing Musk’s Twitter Takeover

Here Are the People Who Lost Millions Backing Musk’s Twitter Takeover

Elon Musk took Twitter private in 2022, but he didn’t do it alone: the deal was backed by his wealthy allies in Silicon Valley, embattled hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, and holding companies based in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, according to a court document ordered unsealed by federal judge on Tuesday, which were first seen by the public late Wednesday night.

The list of shareholders was made public thanks to a motion filed by nonprofit group the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press on behalf of independent tech journalist Jacob Silverman, who has argued that the public deserves to know “who owns an important site for public discourse and whether its free-speech fundamentalist majority shareholder is doing business with censorious dictatorships.” Musk’s company, now branded X Corp., had until Sept. 4 to comply with U.S. District Judge Susan Illston’s order to disclose the investors.
