French Montana and Friends Are On The Way To Buffalo

Concert season in Buffalo this year is turning out to be one of the best in many years. So many concerns, events, and shows have come through town that have left the people in awe, and there are several more on the calendar for this year.

It seems like every time you turn around, there is another show being announced that has music fans excited.

Hip-hop stars Drake and J.Cole shut the region down when they came to town for two sold-out back-to-back shows, and legend Ice Cube had people traveling over the border to St. Catherines to hear some classic hip-hop. Before the year is done, Western New Yorkers and Southern Ontarians can look forward to being entertained by Nicki Minaj, Fat Joe, T-Pain, SWV & Xscape, Janet Jackson, and countless others who are set to hit the region.

Hip Hop fans have plenty of options, and now there is one more show to add to your to-do list this summer.

French Montana Is Bringing His Gotta See It To Believe It Tour To The 716

Karim Kharbouch, better known by his stage name French Montana, is going on the road for a tour. The Moroccan-born rap star immigrated to The Bronx, New York, in 1997 when he was 13 years old and quickly took to hip hop and cites Tupac Shakur, The Notorious B.I.G., Nas, and the Wu-Tang Clan as key influences.

In the years since starting his rap career, Montana has released five studio albums, which have achieved numerous awards, including several RIAA Gold and Platinum certifications and two BET Hip Hop Awards.

French Montana's new tour, Gotta See It To Believe It, is an exclusive show that is only set to hit seven cities across North America. In addition to making stops in Toronto, Boston, Chicago, and Philadelphia, the tour is pulling up to Buffalo and French is bringing some friends with him.
