Drake and Lil Wayne Announce Summer Tour

Drake Lil WayneUMG

Hip-hop heavyweights Drake and Lil Wayne have teamed up to embark on a major stadium tour this summer.


The Drake vs. Lil Wayne tour will hit 31 cities beginning Aug. 8 in Darien Center, N.Y. The trek wraps up on Sept. 27 in Woodlands, Texas.


Tickets go on sale to the public on June 20 and Citi card members will be able to cop pre-sale tickets on June 17 through June 19.


No word if other YMCMB artists, like Tyga or Nicki Minaj, will join the tandem’s summer jaunt.


Recently, Drizzy and Weezy collaborated on the braggadocio track ‘Believe Me,’ which is the first single from Wayne’s purported final album, ‘Tha Carter V.’
