We’re only one month into 2025, and it’s already gearing up to be a hot year of Hip-Hop touring! Spanning continents, subgenres, and fanbases, so many artists are playing shows this year—from ScHoolboy Q, JPEGMAFIA, and Denzel Curry to Azealia Banks, 50 Cent, and Lil Wayne (and so many more!).
While just a glimpse into 2025’s Hip-Hop touring landscape, here’s a list of a few of the tours we’re most excited about so far:
The Weeknd’s ‘After Hours Til Dawn’ Stadium Tour
Following the release of his latest album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, on Jan. 31, The Weeknd recently announced a 2025 stadium tour across North America. Part of an ongoing tour in support of his last few albums, he’ll be joined by Playboi Carti and Mike Dean on this run.
Tyler, The Creator’s ‘CHROMAKOPIA’ World Tour
Tyler, The Creator’s 7-month CHROMAKOPIA world tour starts Feb. 4, featuring special guests Lil Yachty and Paris, Texas. Known to be a bit of an oddball, Tyler creates an unmatched vibe at his concerts—you won’t want to miss out!
Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s ‘Grand National Tour’
Kendrick Lamar and SZA are linking up for 23 shows later this year on their co-headlining Grand National Tour in support of Kendrick’s latest album, GNX. Both formerly signed to Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), the pair is no stranger to collaboration with one another. Don’t sleep on this opportunity to see two heavy hitters at once!
Mary J. Blige’s ‘For My Fans’ Tour
Bronx-born R&B singer, rapper, and all-around icon Mary J. Blige is on her For My Fans tour with special guests Ne-Yo and Mario. Catch her at venues across the country until mid-April!
Drake’s ‘Anita Max Win Tour’
Rap’s resident troll, Drake, is riding the high of his recent beef with Kendrick and his viral “Anita Max Wynn!” soundbite. This certified lover boy is going on a brief tour of Australia and New Zealand in February and March, but it wouldn’t surprise us if he announces a North American tour sometime soon.
Cypress Hill
Carrying the torch for the old school, West Coast hip hop group Cypress Hill plays several dates in North and South America before embarking on their summer tour in Europe, mostly centering around Germany but hitting a few other European cities while they’re at it.
Central Cee’s CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS Tour
British artist Central Cee just announced his CAN’T RUSH GREATNESS tour, supporting his recent release of the same name. Starting April 1 in Norway, the ‘BAND4BAND’ rapper will tour around Europe and the UK. From there, he’ll cross the pond for a series of North American dates before hitting Australia and New Zealand.
