Who we are

SAMPLD is a Toronto-based media and entertainment venture that curates and celebrates the essence of Hip Hop, Pop culture, Entertainment, and Lifestyle. Inspired by the art of musical sampling, where existing sounds are remixed into fresh compositions, SAMPLD applies the same philosophy to storytelling. We borrow from the past, blend it with the present, and create something new. Through both a quarterly print magazine and a dynamic digital presence, SAMPLD captures the pulse of culture while honouring its roots.

Our Vision is to become the leading Canadian cultural publication redefining how Hip Hop, Pop culture, Entertainment, and Lifestyle are experienced, bridging generations and connecting global audiences through authentic storytelling and creative innovation.

Our mission is to amplify diverse voices, trends, and movements within the entertainment industry. We curate cultural influences, remix them with contemporary narratives, and deliver compelling content in both print and digital formats. By doing so, we aim to inspire, connect, and empower readers while paying tribute to the legacy and evolution of Hip Hop and Pop culture.
