"Gives the future of young talent in Canada a leg up - Metronome will bring constant attention to Canada's struggling musicians before and be a testament to their success after."
Divo
"Metronome will revitalize a historic landmark and give birth to a new symbol of our nation's musical accomplishments - an inspiration to the minds and hearts of musicians everywhere."
Tara Chase
"Ingenious and ambitious on the part of John Harris - it's time priceless contributions of Canadian music icons like Maestro and Michie Mee are honoured through Metronome. They introduced Canada to forms of music that were unheard of and even ridiculed by many at the time. The least we can do in return is reward them with the recognition they deserve."
Spade (of Citizen Kane)
"Metronome presents our city and country a sense of history and identity that has been lacking in the past - an offering for the younger generation to be proud of Canadian artists as well as being one. Maestro and Michie did for Hip-Hop in this country what Alanis Morissette and Bryan Adams did for rock, and should be held in the same regard."
Dan-e-o
"My only is hope is that unlike other local institutions who claim to support Canadian music, Metronome uses its dope concept to pay proper respect to our Canadian Hip-Hop culture."
Gavin Stephens
"An amazing initiative - a true catalyst to help spotlight the under-appreciated Canadian Hip-Hop music scene."
