Drake and J. Cole Announce Joint ‘It’s All A Blur — Big As the What?’ Tour
Drake is heading back on tour next year, but this time with a surprise guest — J. Cole.
The Toronto rapper made the announcement Monday morning via Instagram that him and Cole are getting ready for the “It’s All a Blur — Big As the What? Tour” which is slated to kick off Jan. 18 at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado.
Tickets for the shows will be available on Wednesday (Nov. 15) in a Cash App debit card presale, with a general sale to follow two days later at 11 a.m. local time. All of the information about the shows can be found here.
Drake’s announcement comes shortly after his song with J.Cole “First Person Shooter” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The sudden news also appeared to shock fans considering the rapper had also just announced he was taking a two-year break to focus on his health.
“I probably won’t make music for a little bit,” he said on his SiriusXM Radio show ‘Table For One.’ I need to focus on my health first and foremost … I’ve been having the craziest problems for years with my stomach. I need to get right.”
“I have a lot of other things that I’d like to focus on, so I’m going to lock the door on the studio for a little bit,” he added.
