Toronto Rapper Smoke Dawg Shot Dead Saturday Night

Local Toronto ‘Trap House’ rapper, Smoke Dawg, has been identified as one of the victims in Saturday nights downtown shooting.

Friends of Smoke Dawg confirmed his death with Global News Sunday morning due to what Mayor John Tory is calling gang-related violence.

Tory told reporters Sunday morning that he’s “damn mad” about the recent shootings in Toronto.

“This city has always been safe and the objective is to keep it safe. These are people, some of these people who are out on bail and have been doing this repeatedly, involved with gangs who are the only ones that pose a threat to the safety of this city and that’s why I think they should be kept behind bars,” he said. source

A 21-year-old rapper from Toronto, Smoke Dawg is most known for his popular remix of ‘Trap House,’ featuring American hip-hop artist French Montanna.

He was a member of the Halal Gang, which includes rappers Safe, Puffy L’z and Mo-G.
