Doobie in Concert

You may not think of Columbus, Ohio, as the ultimate breeding ground for hip-hop stars, but the ascendance of a man known to his fans simply as Doobie could change all that. With a sound that's influenced as much by the sonics and attitude of rock as it is by legendary rappers like Eminem and Lil Wayne, Doobie came bursting out of the Midwest with a brash, distinctive style and persona when he was in his teens.

Since then, he's gone from strength to strength with his hybrid of hip-hop, R&B, and pop. When Doobie began to take his live show all over the country, more people than ever got a dose of his idiosyncratic delivery, one-of-a-kind wordflow, and in-your-face persona. From Buffalo to Boise, Doobie and his crew have learned how to build a grassroots following, one unapologetically impassioned show at a time.

Doobie Background

Doobie released his EP Demons in 2015, including contributions from his longtime friend and frequent collaborator Krash Minati, and the full-length album Doobie 2 Treed arrived the following year.

It was in 2017 that Doobie really started to take off, when the video for his song "When the Drugs Won't Work" went viral on YouTube. The clip eventually racked up dozens of millions of hits, pushing Doobie's profile to a whole other level. It was no great surprise, of course, when he earned the Artist on the Rise award from YouTube later that year.

Upping his own game, Doobie decided to make the move from the Midwest to Los Angeles in order to amp up his career even more. Following his 2017 album, Doobie 2 Treed 2, the rapper unleashed an unrelenting string of singles in 2018, including "Highway to Hell," "Tap Dancing," and "Hell and Back."
