Smoke Dawg was one of the hottest rappers emerging from Toronto in the past few years. He gained a major buzz in his city and in Canada which helped turn him from a local rap star to the next-rapper to break out of the 6ix. Unfortunately, his time was cut short after he was tragically shot and killed this past summer. The rapper released a ton of music during a brief period of time, but unfortunately, he never released his debut album. Today, Smoke Dawg's team has released his new project, Struggle Before Glory.

Smoke Dawg's posthumous album, Struggle Before Glory is now available for streaming. The project consists of thirteen tracks including the Murda Beatz-produced single, "No Discussion" ft. AJ Tracey. The project also includes appearances from Fredo, Jay Critch, Giggs, Jay Whiss, SAFE, Jimmy Prime, and Puffy L'z.
