Kanye West announced earlier this year that he’d be taking his latest album The Life Of Pablo out on the road and now the official tour dates have finally arrived.
The Grammy award-winning artist, producer and fashion designer will head out on tour this fall for the first time in three years, kicking off the U.S. leg of his Saint Pablo tour in Indianapolis on August 25 and closing out on October 29 in Las Vegas. Kanye is known for his over-the-top tour productions that include theatrical stage set ups and dramatic interpretations of his lengthy catalogue of hits and fan favorites, so this tour should surely be one to remember.
In related Kanye news, the Chicago-born music mastermind also released the first single from the long-awaited second G.O.O.D. Music compilation album Cruel Winter over the weekend.
