Drake Fans Are Outraged Over Insane Ticket Prices For The “It’s All A Blur” Tour

Drake is looking to everyone’s dollar for tickets for the It’s All A Blur tour with 21 Savage. The Toronto rapper formally announced the dates for his tour, which kicks off in June, in support of his last three albums: Certified Lover Boy, Honestly, Nevermind, and November’s Her Loss with 21 Savage. However, just when fans shelled out top-dollar to secure tickets to Beyoncé tickets, they’re now going into a mode of desperation to ensure that they can see The Boy live in the flesh this summer.

Though Drake tickets for the general public go on sale this Friday, CashApp cardholders had first dibs on securing their admission to the show. However, it looks like folks will be spending an arm and a leg to enter the show. Tickets are apparently going for $1K, which some felt was as outrageous as the price for Chris Brown’s infamous meet-and-greets last year. Still, people are willing to do whatever to secure spots at the concert, which will undoubtedly be a massive spectacle.

Drake & 21 Savage Gear Up For The “It’s All A Blur” Tour

Drake and 21 Savage confirmed they were hitting the road together during the back-to-back concerts at Harlem’s Apollo Theater. Though neither provided much information after hinting at a tour, the information leaked online confirming the title It’s All A Blur. Drake announced the tour with a nostalgic video that captured his rise from his come-up in Toronto to becoming a global selling icon. And, as the tour poster suggests, the tour will likely be commemorative of his tenure in hip-hop.

The tour will kick off in New Orleans on June 16th before hitting cities like Nashville, Houston, Dallas, Miami, and then two nights in 21’s hometown of Atlanta. From there, they’ll do another back-to-back evening in Chicago before going through the East Coast to cities like Boston and New York City. So far, Drake hasn’t confirmed a date for Toronto, though it seems likely that he’s waiting to announce a date for OVO Fest. However, it seems like no matter which show you plan to attend, you’ll likely be spending an extravagant amount on tickets. Is $1,000 worth it? Let us know in the comments below. ​​

Fans React To Outrageous Prices For Drake Tickets

Drake Announces “It’s All A Blur” Tour Dates With 21 Savage

Drake and 21 Savage might have one of the hottest tours this summer. In late December, Drake confirmed that he would hit the road for his first tour in four long years. Though the rapper played a handful of shows and popped out on various stages during other artists’ sets, he began performing again over the past few months. In January, he hit the Apollo Theatre for his first concert at the venue where he brought out Dipset, Lil Uzi Vert, and 21 Savage, who he said would be joining him for a joint tour.

Shortly after the Apollo shows, ticket information leaked surrounding the It’s All A Blur tour. Neither Drake nor 21 Savage acknowledged whether the dates were accurate, but it seemed as though everything was finally in place for the tour to kick off. And while it’s been two months since that information leaked, Drake hit the ‘Gram this morning to confirm that the tour was officially going down this summer, starting in New Orleans, LA in June. 

Drake & 21 Savage “It’s All A Blur” Tour

Drake shared a video on his Instagram page teasing his tour with a montage of video clips from over his decade-plus tenure in the rap game. The video begins with footage from the Take Care and Nothing Was The Same era before going through other tour and studio highlights during the minute-and-a-half video. Future, The Weeknd, 21 Savage, and other collaborators appear in the video, along with a baby Adonis, who Drake is feeding with a baby bottle at one point.

The tour will begin in New Orleans, LA on Friday, June 16th before he heads to cities like Houston, Dallas, and Miami to close out the month. Drake and 21 Savage will also perform back-to-back dates in cities like Atlanta, Chicago, Boston, Brooklyn, New York City, and Inglewood. The tour will ultimately close out in Glendale, AZ on Sept. 5th. However, Drake hasn’t confirmed dates in his hometown of Toronto, though it’s quite possible that he’ll announce OVO Fest dates in the coming months.

Where To Buy Tickets For Ella Mai’s “Heart On My Sleeve” Tour

Ella Mai is going on tour to promote her album Heart On My Sleeve. The album was released back in May 2022 but the deluxe released this year in February. Ella Mai announced the album in March of 2022 and stated she poured her heart into it. The original album featured 15 songs and the deluxe added three songs. Separating the two is easy since the cover of the deluxe is in black and white, a large contrast to the original’s colorful cover. The album has minimal features with them coming from Latto, Lucky Daye and Roddy Ricch. This type of a variety showcases the adaptability of Ella as well as her collaborators. The deluxe edition does not add any new features.

Ella Mai has been hinting at going on tour since 2022. In a slideshow of Instagram posts recapping the year there were some not-so-subtle hints. These included her standing in front of an empty venue as well as footage of her rehearsing with a live band. In a more understated hint, she also included a picture of a water bottle with her album’s logo on it. Her listeners were quick to comment about these clues and ask about a tour. Many of them mentioned how long it had been since she did a solo tour and how they had their hopes high. 

Ella Mai has announced her Tour

Whenever an artist drops an album, people expect and assume a tour will follow it. During the pandemic years of 2020 through some of 2022 this was not a guarantee. Many fans who already purchased tickets for various tours learned that the tour would not be happening. This not only left fans disappointed but the artists as well. Some opted to do virtual concerts through social media and YouTube from their homes or small venues. As time went on, venues began to open up with policies in place to keep everyone safe. These policies were worth the trouble for many fans because of their love for the artists. Recently, more and more venues have abandoned these policies and fans are able to attend shows with fewer precautions. 

Ella Mai announced her Heart On My Sleeve Tour on January 22, 2023. On this same day, she also announced the deluxe edition of her album Heart On My Sleeve. Her listeners certainly had a lot to look forward to with both of these announcements. The tour poster featured the same black and white imagery the cover of the deluxe edition of the album has. This uniformity is a glimpse of the type of curated visuals fans can expect to see on the tour. The tour begins March 31 2023 and ends on May 4 2023. Ella has called this her “North America Tour” which leads many fans to believe an overseas portion – specifically in the UK- will be coming in the future.

Fans are Looking Forward to the Tour

Ella Mai recently asked her Twitter followers to ask her some questions. Naturally, many of the questions were about how she was doing or how specific songs came to be. However, there were also some questions about her upcoming tour. One of the first ones asked if there would be any openers/guests for the tour. Ella did not specify who they would be, but she did confirm there would be some. The tour poster does not share who the openers are either. Ella also shared that the chances of a UK portion of her tour are very high. She stated she wants to come back to her home in the UK since she is on tour all over America. 

Tickets for Ella Mai’s Tour are Available Now

Tickets for Ella Mai’s Heart On My Sleeve tour are available now. Fans should check Ella Mai’s website to be connected to their venue’s ticket seller. An extensive list of tour dates and locations are on the homepage of her website. This makes it easy to find without navigating through multiple menus. Fans can scroll to their preferred city and click on “tickets” to gain access to the tour. They can also click on “RSVP” to get reminders and updates about the tickets as the date for their city gets closer. At the bottom of the list, there is an option to “Track” the tour which will take fans to the RSVP page too.

There are several ticket options with various benefits for each one. Naturally, the prices for these various levels increase depending on what comes with them. Most dedicated fans will want to purchase the Meet and Greet Experience tickets. These tickets are also the most expensive ones available. These tickets give fans access to take a picture with Ella Mai, enter the venue early and merch items. Fans can also select the VIP Merch Bundle tickets. This bundle includes an Ella Mai windbreaker, scrunchies, early entry and other benefits. However, there are merch items available on her website now. Some of them are already sold out.

Where To Buy Chlöe’s ‘In Pieces’ Tour Tickets

Chloe Bailey first rose to fame through her joint YouTube account with her sister Halle. Now, she is one of the most promising newer R&B singers making music. The latest news regarding the singer is that she has announced her very first tour. Chloe Bailey’s tour is a smaller engagement than many fans would like, but it just means you may have to find a nearby state to see her in concert. She’s still winning fans, but Chloe has proven she has the talent and stage presence to headline a tour. This also means people need to know where to buy Chloe’s tour tickets for the In Pieces Tour. 

Chloe Bailey tour tickets go on sale soon, with dates starting in April and running until May. The tour mainly consists of theaters, which means her biggest fans will get an intimate experience with the singer and her iconic vocals. As fans know from her music videos, Chloe is also a talented dancer, which means ticket buyers can expect a full show. 

As of now, Chloe Bailey hasn’t announced opening acts for her debut solo tour. However, there is still a chance she may pick an up-and-coming artist to join her on the road. Although, as she’s gearing up to release a full album, she may want to ensure the tour stops are entirely about her music as she continues to build her audience. 

Here’s where to buy Chloe Bailey tour tickets. 

Chloe Bailey’s Tour Announcement 

Chloe Bailey announced the In Pieces Tour on February 28th. This is the Pray It Away singer’s first tour as a headliner. The In Pieces Tour will begin on April 11th in Chicago at the Riviera Theatre. It will conclude on May 3rd in Los Angeles at The Novo. The Chloe Bailey tour will only include 11 dates, so fans must be fairly quick in ticket-buying. 

Though Chloe Bailey’s first album is forthcoming, the singer has a wealth of solo songs to choose from for the tour’s setlist. The singer’s first single, Have Mercy, shocked the music industry in 2021. Since then, she has released a number of songs, but she has decided they will not be on the forthcoming album. This makes sense, as they are now older and would date the album. But that doesn’t mean fans won’t get to see her sing songs such as Have Mercy and Treat Me. You can see the dates for the Chloe Bailey tour below.

One of the fans’ biggest questions regarding the upcoming Chloe Bailey hitting the road to perform is where to get tickets. In the age of pre-sales, the process has become much more complicated than it was even just a few years ago. Luckily, with the In Pieces Tour being relatively small and limited to the US, the process is a bit more straightforward. Her official website is the best way to get tickets. There is currently a pre-sale going on with the pre-sale password PRAY. On her site, you’ll find the list of dates as well as a link to either regular tickets or VIP packages. The public sale for tickets begins March 3rd at 10 am local time. 

The next best way to get Chloe Bailey tour tickets is through Live Nation. Though Live Nation is going through legal drama currently, even its process should be simple to get tickets. Live Nation also has a pre-sale going on for the In Pieces Tour. Its pre-sale lasts until March 2nd at 10 pm local time with the password CHORUS. If fans don’t want to do either of those options, they can get tickets from StubHub. 

Chloe Bailey’s Tour Will Support Her New Album

Touring is one of the best ways for an artist to promote a new album. Partly, it’s because the process puts them in front of the fans with the possibility of performances going viral through social media. In addition, it’s also much more lucrative for the artist than counting on album sales and streams alone. Chloe Bailey’s first tour is named after her upcoming album, In Pieces. She released the official first single, Pray It Away, in January. More recently, she released another song featuring Chris Brown titled How Does it Feel. 

As many fans are aware, both Chloe and her sister are proteges of Beyonce. In addition, her record deal with Beyoncé’s Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records. Though she still hasn’t had a long-lasting hit on the charts, this backing from the likes of Beyoncé gives fans hope that the album will be a solid body of work. Currently, there’s an online conversation regarding Chloe Bailey not connecting with fans in the way needed for sustained success. Hopefully, the upcoming tour and album will help more fans notice the singer’s talent and stage presence.

Beyoncé Officially Announces “Renaissance” World Tour 2023

Beyoncé will be hitting the road for the first time since 2018’s On The Run II Tour with Jay-Z.

After much speculation in recent months, Queen Bey dropped the official dates for the Renaissance World Tour 2023. The singer will kick off the European leg first. The tour will begin in Stockholm, Sweden on May 10th before heading to various European cities including Paris, London, and Amsterdam.

The North American leg will begin with two nights in Toronto on July 8th and 9th before heading to Philadelphia to begin the remainder of her U.S. dates. Beyoncé will be hitting every major U.S. city including two nights in both New York and Los Angeles. 

The news of Beyoncé’s tour comes shortly after her performance in Dubai. The “Alien Superstar” artist graced the stage for the grand opening of Atlantis The Royal for an exclusive performance. Only celebrities, influencers and journalists were invited to watch the show.

Beyoncé’s album, Renaissance dropped in late July 2022. The project’s dance-heavy production earned critical acclaim across the board, landing at the top of several year-end lists. Additionally, it earned Bey 9 Grammy noms including Album Of The Year. During the 2022 Wearable Art Gala, she sparked speculation surrounding the upcoming tour after auctioning luxury ticket packages. The buyers spent $40K and over for backstage passes, concert tickets and more.

Other dates include stops in cities such as St. Louis, Houston, Cleveland, and more. Wayne will also head north of the border for a sole show in Toronto on April 12th.

It appears that Lil Wayne will grace more intimate settings during the upcoming tour. Though he’s known to sell out arenas and stadiums, Wayne will perform in legendary venues like Minneapolis’ The Fillmore and Harlem’s Apollo Theater, which have 1,500 capacity.

The upcoming tour suggests that Wayne has new music coming soon. Wayne’s previously announced both Tha Carter VI and Dedication 7 would drop soon. During the Young Money Reunion in Toronto, Wayne revealed that the pre-order for the next installment of Tha Carter series is live. Considering the name of his forthcoming tour is “Welcome To Tha Carter,” the follow-up to Funeral could be coming soon.

However, Wayne and DJ Drama indicated that Dedication 7 would arrive in 2021. However, neither have provided a solid update since then.

Future Announces “One Big Party” 2023 Tour

Future will be coming to a city near you in 2023, as part of his upcoming “One Big Party” tour.

The Atlanta rapper shared dates for his upcoming tour on social media this morning, which will include performances from some special guests. The upcoming stint will be a short one, consisting of six dates in total. However, he’ll be kicking off the new year with a bang.

The One Big Party tour will take over Stadiums in major cities, beginning with Houston’s Toyota Center (Jan.6th). From there, Future will touch down in Charlotte, NC’s Spectrum (Jan. 13th) before making his homecoming return to Atlanta at the State Farm Arena (Jan. 14th). Then, he’ll touch down at the United Center in Chicago (Jan. 20th), Washington, DC’s Capital Arena (Jan 22nd), before closing things out at Boston’s TD Garden (Jan. 27th).

It will certainly be an exciting string of shows, considering that Future hasn’t toured in five years at this point. However, he has been a mainstay at Rolling Loud throughout the year. Fewtch headlined the Miami and New York dates. Additionally, he also headlined the inaugural launch in Toronto. The rapper will also headline the 2023 Rolling Loud festival in California.

The announcement of the One Big Party tour comes after a highly productive year including the release of I Never Liked You. Future’s ninth studio album arrived after a nearly 2-year hiatus. The project shot to the top of the Billboard 200 with over 200K units in its first week while the single, “Wait For You” ft. Drake and Tems secured #1 and became the song of the summer.

Clearly, Future has some big plays on his mind in 2023. Hopefully, he has a bigger tour on the horizon after the upcoming One Big Party tour.

We’ll keep you posted on who the special guests will be. Check out the dates for Future’s One Big Party tour below.
