Sidhu Moose Wala Is Coming Back to the Stage as a Hologram

The planned 'Signed to God' arena tour will begin in Toronto before travelling to cities including London and Los Angeles.

Sidhu Moose Wala Is Coming Back to the Stage as a Hologram

Late Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moose Wala will once again send concertgoers into frenzy, as his estate has confirmed that a hologram arena tour has been planned.

First rumoured to be in the works last year, the superstar's father has confirmed that around 10 dates are planned on this tour, and that he will personally be in attendance at the first representation, set to take place at Toronto's ScotiaBank Arena on October 8th. Entitled the 'Signed to God' tour, the holographic performances will also travel to cities including London and Los Angeles.


''Through state-of-the-art 3D holography, fans will see Sidhu walk the stage, make eye contact with the crowd, deliver his powerful lyrics, and relive his most iconic moments. Every performance is synced with live lighting, sound, and stage effects, making the experience feel personal and unforgettable,'' reads a statement on his website. ''This isn’t a recreation. This is resurrection through art and technology — the chance to stand in the presence of a legend, to sing along, to feel the energy, and to witness Sidhu Moose Wala in a way that feels real, raw, and revolutionary.''

Few details have been released about the technology partners involved in making this event a reality. Despite having been around for over a decade, holographic performances remain rare. The most notable example was when the technology was used at Coachella in 2012, when a digital version of late rapper Tupac popped up onstage during Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg's performance, to join them for a rendition of ''Hail Mary'' and "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted".

Sidhu Moose Wala was one Punjab's greatest exports and will be remembered as a trailblazing rapper. An at times controversial figure, loyal to his political convictions, he was shot dead in May 2022.

What Ye’s Chicago Reunion Really Says About His Legacy

For all the mythology built around Ye (formerly Kanye West) as a singular genius, the most convincing argument for his influence has always been crowded with other people. Look closely at almost any important period of his career and somebody else is standing there: a rapper he produced for, an artist he signed, a voice he pulled unexpectedly onto a record, a peer who challenged him, a protégé who eventually became a superstar or a collaborator with whom the relationship became almost as famous as the music they made together. At Soldier Field this week, Ye managed to put an astonishing amount of that history in one place, making a compelling case that one of his greatest contributions to hip-hop might be the world he built around himself.

Blackpink’s Lisa Returns to Her Rap Roots on Solo Single ‘SaWaDiKa’

Lisa is saying “hello” to her new chapter. The rapper-singer has released her new supercharged single “SaWaDiKa,” which is a Thai greeting for “hello.”

The track finds Lisa returning to her rap roots, as she spits bars with the sharp prowess she’s known for. “I’m that bitch on your TV/In my Ferrari, indigo/La Lalisa, la diva,” she raps over sputtering drums. Produced by Thom Bridges, who has worked with Katseye and John Summit among other artists, and songwriting duo Ojivolta, the track is a thumping first look into Lisa’s forthcoming EP, Press Play, which arrives on Oct. 23 via LLOUD Co./RCA Records.

Big Sean and Kanye West Reunite After Feud With Surprise Appearance in Chicago

Big Sean made a surprise appearance at Kanye West‘s homecoming concert at Soldier Field in Chicago to perform his hit single “I Don’t Fuck With You,” a sentiment that no longer seems to apply to the relationship between the two rappers who spent the past five years locked in a quiet feud.

West and Sean publicly fell out around 2021, when Sean claimed West owed him $6 million in a since-deleted post on X. That same year, West said signing Sean to his record label G.O.O.D. Music, through which his music was released from 2007 through 2021, was “worst thing I’ve ever done” — though it can’t have been worse than the antisemitic rants and racist remarks that have derailed his career over the past few years.
