Chicago rap star Lil Durk is set to turn up the heat on Drake and J. Cole’s It’s All A Blur – Big As The What?’ tour. Drake made the announcement yesterday via Instagram, promising fans “the most T’d show of your life.”
The tour is an extension of Drake’s 50-date Summer 2023 tour with 21 Savage. After being postponed due to Drake’s ankle injury, the second leg of the tour finally kicked off on February 2 in Tampa, Florida.
The details are still under wraps, but here’s the main question people are asking: with J. Cole occasionally missing in action, could Durk be tasked with being the fill-in for those shows? We should know soon but for now lots of things are still up in the air.
Just yesterday, Lil Durk won his first Grammy Award, taking home the Best Melodic Rap Performance award for his J. Cole-assisted, “All My Life.” Billboard’s Rania Aniftos caught up with Durk afterwards for his take on the accomplishment: “I feel good. Shout out J. Cole. Shout out Dr. Luke. It feel good to be at the Grammys.”
He continued: “There was a lot of bumps in the road but I think that’s for everybody. As long as you stay focused and get it together, you good.”
The It’s All a Blur — Big As the What? tour continues tomorrow in Tennessee for the first of two Nashville dates, before heading to St. Louis for a pair of shows there. Most of the tour stops have at least two dates, which is certainly a testament for the demand to see Drake in concert.
Unfortunately there are no Canadian dates on the current schedule, but that could change in the future.
