All in a day’s work; Hip Hop don’t stop in Toronto thanks to Team Supreme Genes

BY SIMONE J. SMITH

“I don’t want to do this shit anymore,” he said angrily. “I swear, this is my last time doing this.”

I was speaking with the one and only Lord Fury; he was expressing his frustration surrounding the upcoming Styles P concert that he was putting on October 12^th, 2023. As I listened to him, he reminded me of my parents who every year tell me that they are not ever going to do their summer garden, and as you can guess, every year I see them buy their seeds, buy manure, and start their garden.

I completely get his frustration, from what he had shared, it took quite a bit of work to put on the incredible productions that I have had a chance to experience time and time again. Coordinating the schedules of multiple artists, especially if they are in-demand (Ghostface Killah, Killah Priest) and have busy touring schedules, can be incredibly challenging. Aligning everyone’s availability on the same date can be a logistical nightmare.

Then he has to choose an appropriate venue, ensuring that it has the right acoustics, capacity, and facilities. Hip-hop concerts often require venues with excellent sound systems to ensure the music and lyrics are clear and powerful. They also often involve complex technical setups, including sound systems, lighting, and special effects. Ensuring that all technical aspects run smoothly and are synchronized with the artists’ performances is essential for a successful concert.

Thankfully, Lord Fury has an extensive network, so he is able to effectively promote the concert to his target audience. He has to budget the numerous expenses, including artist fees, venue rental, equipment, and marketing. He is great at maintaining good relationships with the performing artists, because he is a man of his word. He fulfills their contractual obligations, provides necessary accommodations, and ensures they have a positive experience, which is why he is able to bring such amazing acts to the city.

Then of course, there is the night of the event where Fury ensures that he creates an engaging and memorable experience for the audience. It is a lot of work, but somehow, Fury makes it look easy. This time, it was all about Styles P, a man that throughout his 29-year music career has become a prominent voice of the streets. Many of us remember him as a member of The LOX alongside his Yonkers brethren Jadakiss and Sheek Louch. Even though they all went on their own musical journey’s they have all seen success in their own right. Styles P continues to reach people through his music, and on October 12^th, his devoted Toronto fan base proved that they still love him.

Once again, this concert displayed the power of Hip Hop. It has the power to evoke a wide range of emotions and has become an integral part of Toronto cultural expression. Hip Hop brings people together and transcends language barriers. It is a music that can be understood and appreciated by people from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

Guess what Toronto? Even though he said he was getting tired of it, Fury is at it again. This time Conway the Machine is here on November 1st, 2023, for the “Won’t He Do It” Tour. That’s right; make your way down to The Opera House, 735 Queen St East, Toronto.
