Lil Gnar

Lil Gnar is an Atlanta-based rapper and skater whose path runs from the skatepark to the booth. Born in Oakland before landing in Atlanta, he first built a name through GNARCOTIC, his streetwear line, and a visual world mixing skate culture and punk codes. He broke out online with Ride Wit Da Fye in 2017, then signed with Capitol the following year for the mixtape GNAR Lif3, followed by Fire Hazard in 2019 and GNAR Lif3 2 in 2022. His sound blends aggressive trap, autotuned melodies and heavy bass, with lyrics focused on ego trip, fashion and the day-to-day, and collaborations with Lil Uzi Vert, Chief Keef and Trippie Redd position him between trap and emo-rap.

On March 8, 2026 at Lee’s Palace in Toronto, Lil Gnar brings a set built on fast tempos, gritty hooks and saturated digital production, drawing from early singles like Ride Wit Da Fye and later projects. The show connects his skate background and contemporary Atlanta rap, with tracks that move between abrasive trap and melodic refrains, carried by a visual and musical aesthetic shaped by skate culture and internet rap.
