Crooks

Emerging Toronto hip-hop artist, Crooks paints his colours through words within his noir-like (black) canvas. He embodies a cadence that is evocative, potent and real. His image is representative of vintage eras which provide a comfortable seat to the listening ear. The inspiration behind his vivid flows derive from his ability to translate his personal experiences, relations to family and friends into boundless thoughts. Crooks’ contribution to his audience is one that reflects his patience and a drive for originality.


From releases like ‘Slide’ to ‘Crown’, we hear how Crooks takes us through a journey through his upbringing - reminding us how our most influential ideas come from family. With his latest single ‘Gold Smoke Freestyle’, audiences can expect to hear how Crooks bleeds passion through signature lyricism and delivery.


Standing by the principle of "to each their own", we will always know the authenticity of Crooks’ performance as he is the only person to write his thoughts into words. Originality at its finest, Crooks is a prime example of what this industry has lost.



As an introspective individual, consistently on the path of unfolding, Crooks is a stand-alone and unique prospect amongst the current sea of artists and performers of the next generation.
