from The Man Dem Show · host The GTV Network

On this episode of The Man Dem Show, Guttzy Guttz and DJ Laz Vagez sit down with Toronto recording artist Pae Cash (fka Ca$hino).Pae Cash opens up about his rebranding process, his recent tour across Canada with Calboy, and the hilarious (and gross) story of a fan in Vancouver.
