[News] Toronto Rapper Smoke Dawg Murdered in Long Weekend Shooting

We will concede that, while we were familiar with local up-and-coming Toronto rapper, Smoke Dawg on a very cursory level (we were following him on Soundlcoud, at least), it was his untimely demise this weekend that, sadly, compelled us to share his music here at the Kitchen for the first time.

A quick backgrounder for those not knowing:

Smoke Dawg first gained notoriety for his role on the street anthem “Still” and a remix of French Montana’s “Trap House”. In 2016, he collaborated with Skepta on “Overseas” and last year, he was an opening act on Drake’s Boy Meets World European tour. Just this week he dropped a new song called “Fountain Freestyle” to preview his debut full-length project, Struggle Before Glory, which was slated for release later this year.

As I said in a Facebook post about this news, in the wake of the news of the deaths of XXXTentacion and Jimmy Wopo this is sobering news to learn of from right here in our home town. The creators within our culture should not be dying like this! R.I.P., Smoke Dawg…..
