Vince Staples has lined up a North American tour behind his new album Cry Baby.The rapper will be accompanied by a live band for the run of shows, which take place in October and November.
For a preview of what’s in store, scroll down to watch a recording of Staples’ release-day concert at Los Angeles’ El Rey Theatre.Staples dropped Cry Baby, his first full-length release for Loma Vista, at the beginning of the month.Three tracks from the album—“Blackberry Marmalade,” “White Flag,” and “Cotton”—received high-concept, politically charged music videos.
The “Blackberry Marmalade” clip, filmed in the style of a first-person shooter, was quickly age-restricted on YouTube, prompting Staples to write on X, “if you are over the age of 18, make sure to share it with the youth around you.Our children deserve the truth.”Read Vince Staples on Lauryn Hill’s The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill in the 2021 feature 33 Musicians on Their Favorite Albums of the Last 25 Years.Vince Staples: Cry Baby TourBuy Now at TicketmasterBuy Now at Vince StaplesVince Staples:10-19 Atlanta, GA - Tabernacle10-21 Houston, TX - Bayou Music Center10-22 Austin, TX - Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheater10-23 Dallas, TX - South Side Ballroom10-25 Raleigh, NC - The Ritz10-27 Brooklyn, NY - Brooklyn Steel10-29 Silver Spring, MD - The Fillmore Silver SPring10-30 Philadelphia, PA - Franklin Music Hall11-01 Boston, MA - Roadrunner11-04 Toronto, Ontario - Queen Elizabeth Theatre11-06 Pittsburgh, PA - Roxian Theatre11-07 Detroit, MI - The Majestic Theatre11-08 Chicago, IL - Riviera Theatre11-11 Denver, CO - Fillmore Auditorium11-13 Phoenix, AZ - The Van Buren11-15 San Francisco, CA - The Warfield...
