Tyler, The Creator is hitting the road in support of his No. 1 album, Igor, and he's bringing some friends with him.
In an announcement on Monday morning (June 3), Tyler revealed the dates for the Igor Tour, with supporting acts Jaden Smith, Blood Orange and Goldlink.
Kicking off in August at the Bumbershoot festival, Tyler and co. will make their way across the U.S. and Canada before wrapping in Houston at the end of October. Additionally, Tyler will stop off in the U.K. midway (sans his opening acts)—making for his first shows across the pond in four years. The rapper had previously been banned by U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May for his lyrics, as she said they “encourage violence and intolerance of homosexuality” and “foster hatred with views that seek to provoke others to terrorist acts.”
Though the ban was recently lifted and Tyler was able to return to the U.K. to promote Igor, he was forced to cancel a surprise show he had planned after too many people showed up and it caused a bit of chaos.
You can view the full list of Tyler's tour dates for yourself below. Tickets go on sale this Friday (June 8).
