Brampton artists continue to make their mark in the Canadian music industry, and the efforts of some have been recognized with a Juno Award.<\/p>\n

The award ceremony is held annually to celebrate excellence, creativity, and outstanding achievements across all genres of Canadian music. Founded in 1971 and administered by the\u00a0Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARAS)<\/a>, they serve as the Canadian equivalent to the Grammy Awards.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Saturday night in Hamilton, two artists were recognized.<\/p>\n

Rap single of the year went to TOBi, along with\u00a0 Jully Black and Saukrates, for the song Who\u2019s Driving You?<\/p>\n
