Brent Faiyaz has announced details of his ‘F*ck The World, It’s A Wasteland’ world tour – including 14 stops around the UK and Europe. You can buy tickets here.
The tour is in support of the R&B singer’s most recent album, last year’s ‘Wastleland’, which featured singles ‘All Mine’ and Drake-assisted ‘Wasting Time’.
The DMV singer has revealed that he will be going on a 42-stop world tour that kicks off this month in Florida. The extensive US leg will be followed by five UK shows in October, starting at Leeds’ O2 Academy and ending in London at the Eventim Apollo.
Tickets go on sale this Friday (May 5) and will be available here.
The announcement also celebrates the news that Brent Faiyaz’s choice to stay independent has landed him a wide-ranging partnership with Steve Stoute’s company UnitedMasters worth $50 million. The deal will include a recording partnership and a creative agency.
UnitedMasters CEO and founder Steve Stoute said: “Brent Faiyaz is one of the most prolific independent artists today and we are extremely excited to embark on this new partnership with him.
