Toronto Rapper Houdini's Posthumous Album 'Hou I’m Meant To Be' Coming September 20

The long-awaited album from the artist, who was tragically murdered in 2020, has just been confirmed for next week. The just-released tracklist features frequent collaborators Pressa, KILLY, Dej Loaf, Fivio Foreign, Why G and more.

Toronto rapper Houdini was still on the way up when he was tragically murdered in 2020.

His 2019 releases Hou I Am and Hou Woulda Thought were both popular mixtapes, and his debut EP underGROUND established him as a major name. His 2017 hit "Late Nights" with Burna Bandz was belatedly certified gold by Music Canada in 2021 after his death. "Levels" has also gone gold.
