You never know what you’re going to get at a Torey Lanez show–just ask Lanez’ fans (known collectively as SWAVENATION) who’ve seen him crowdsurf and crowdwalk. The Canadian rapper, singer, and producer is set to release his debut album in 2016, and yet he’s already attracted fervent fans who flock to sold-out shows. Since he released mixtapes Conflicts of My Soul: The 416 Story (2013) and Lost Cause (2014), Lanez has built a reputation for combining deep topics–like how he got kicked out of his grandma’s house–with delicious beats and hooks. Whether he’s singing or rapping on stage, Lanez’s execution is consistently precise and emotional. Add that with his interactive performance style and we’re confident his career is only movin’ on up.
