As noted by SFgate.com, TDE artists frequently collaborate with each other and often perform each other’s music. In August, for example, ScHoolboy Q rapped clips of Lamar’s music during his 2017 Outside Lands music festival set. Lamar and SZA also recently released a single for the forthcoming Marvel film, “Black Panther,” titled “All the Stars.”
The tour, produced by Live Nation, will kick off May 4 in Vancouver, BC and wraps June 16 in Pittsburgh, PA. The full itinerary is below.
