He Has Risen tour

 Nothing could stop the wave of the He Has Risen tour, headlined by Smoke DZA and Flatbush Zombies that hit up Toronto’s Wrongbar earlier this month.
Smashmouth Entertainment lined up a bill stacked with creative artists, who each brought a whole other level of hype to the amped audience. Toronto’s own Jimmy B set the night off right by proving himself as a performer as he connected with the crowd by using his charm, before The Antiheroes hit the stage, bringing lyricism and their underground vibe to an already energetic night of hype hip-hop.
“These guys really know how to perform and put on a show for Toronto so it was really dope to see,” said Sha Prince of The Antiheroes about Flatbush Zombies & Smoke DZA. The Toronto hip-hop duo opened the show at both the Ottawa and Toronto stops of the He Has Risen tour and enjoyed learning from the other artists on the bill.

“You can learn a lot from watching other people rock a stage. Flatbush really knows what they’re doing and they really had control over the crowd.”
Cashius Green brought a different element and energy to the stage, wearing a one-piece ski suit hanging around his waist and rocking the crowd in a wolf mask at one point, as the venue soaked in his unique energy.
The Brooklyn badasses, Flatbush Zombies, performed tracks off of their D.R.U.G.S mixtape, such as “Thug Waffle”, but started off their set by paying dues to Canada by playing the country’s national anthem. Their set was on a next level of intense as the crowd went insane after the group members admitted they were on acid.

Smoke DZA took over the stage and gave Toronto an unforgettable performance while rocking an old-school Blue Jays jacket. DZA’s grind has been on point this year. The KushedGod, who recently toured North America all summer on the Smoker’s Club One Hazy Summer tour, also put out three projects in one year, Cuz I Felt Like It, Rugby Thompson and K.O.N.Y, before headlining his first-ever tour. He says he was more than happy to hit up Toronto, as it’s one of his favourite cities to perform. “I love performing in Toronto, they always give me un-human-like energy,” he said.

It may be hard to top a year of two tours and three projects, but DZA promises his fans can expect much more from him. “I’m right at the door for doing what I’ve always wanted to do and that is being a star and producing quality projects and material for the world. I think I’m right there,” he said.
It is surprising that Wrongbar is still standing after such an interesting and creative night of high-energy artists. Each artist held his own as it was clear that this new age, rock star lifestyle of hip-hop is here and the artists are taking no prisoners.
