Raekwon and Mobb Deep are going on tour together. The two mainstays of East Coast hip-hop are launching a joint trek on November 13 in Portland, OR. They’ll hit major markets like Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, New York, and other cities before wrapping in Miami Beach, FL. on December 15. The special co-headlining event is in celebration of the 30th anniversary of two classic releases from 1995 — Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… and Mobb Deep’s The Infamous.
The tour is produced by Live Nation and presented by LOUD Live; and both Raekwon and Havoc of Mobb Deep made the official announcement on Tuesday (Aug. 12).
“Me and Havoc from Mobb will be pure hip-hop at its finest,” Rae said via statement. “This is gonna take rap shows to the next level — guaranteed!”
“The fans can expect nothing less than pure, raw, unfiltered energy on stage,” Havoc added. “I’m excited to celebrate these two legendary albums—the world doesn’t exist to me without that purple tape in it. This will be a tour the fans will never forget.”
Both The Infamous and …Cuban Linx… are Loud Records releases, and LOUD Live CEO Steve Rifkind also shared his enthusiasm for the special tour.
“This tour defines what hip-hop means to the culture,” he stated. “30 years of greatness, and two Top 10 hip-hop albums of all time. Raekwon and Mobb Deep have supported each other for over three decades. The Loud, Wu-Tang family and Mobb Deep family have been through it all together. When this tour comes to your city, you’re definitely going to witness greatness at its best—with a ton of surprises.”
