Canada rap scene gets revived with No Tourist’s Heavy Grime Single « Dumbo ».
We all know UK Rap scene is really taking off lately, and the proof is that its Drill/Grime noise is inspiring the Canadian Rap scene, especially with emerging Rap Collective No Tourists. Indeed, the collective pays Homage to UK Drill by unveiling their charismatic upbeat single « Dumbo ». And you would think No Tourists is a UK collective, if you’re just hearing Dumbo for the first time. Even the visual concept draws its inspiration from UK rap visuals perspective.
Speaking about the inspiration behind ‘Dumbo’, No Tourists say:
“The song was heavily inspired by our love and respect for UK drill and grime music. Through the collective efforts of our producers universes and geezr, ‘Dumbo’ offers up our own Toronto take on the intersection of UK drill and grime music. This track is special to us because we were all on the same page in trying to make a tune that captures our respect and love for UK drill and grime. We all pushed ourselves out of our comfort zones and surprised each other a little bit – in the end, ‘Dumbo’ is what we set it out to be, you can’t listen and remain stagnant”
