“Mr. Parker” is the new single from Kardinal Offishall and Nottz’s A.M.T.R.I.M. project and features Shi Wisdom.

Enjoy. Remember. Reflect. Relate. Re-live. Realize. Re-invent. Kardinal and Nottz (on the beat) link up with Shi Wisdom to bring you “Mr.Parker”. A song about growing up and living with the challenges of an education system that is built for “us” to fail (or atleast having it be very difficult to succeed). With little encouragement, many of us have overcome and beat the system, no thanx to “Mr.Parker”. Enjoy. Remember. Reflect. Relate. Re-live. Realize. Re-invent. (Special appearances by Lu Breeze, Solitair aka Silver, A Game, Burd, NVS, Kreesha Turner, Trixx, RepJA.com and others!)
