Naaah, Dis Kid Can't Be from Canada?!! is the fourth studio album by Canadian rapper Maestro Fresh-Wes, released in 1994 on Attic/LMR Records. Singles from the album include "Fine Tune da Mic" and "Certs wid Out da Retsyn". Most of the production was handled by Maestro, with contributions from D.I.T.C. member Showbiz.

Reception

RapReviews.com gave the album an 8.5/10 rating and praised its underground sound, calling it "anything but a commercial album." Maestro also changed his image to reflect hip hop fashion in the mid-1990s, "Gone was the tuxedo, replaced by a hoodie."

The album was a commercial failure and after its release, many members of Toronto's hip-hop community began dissing Maestro. However, it was nominated for Best Rap Recording at the 1995 Juno Awards.
