ASAP Rocky Announces Raury As Special Guest For Australian Tour
The party gets bigger.

ASAP Rocky’s tour has gotten even bigger – and no, the special guest isn’t Rod Stewart as we speculated last week. Still, there’s plenty of reasons to smile, with upcoming Atlanta talent Raury joining the trip Down Under in February 2016.

Having just visited the country alongside Wiz Khalifa, Raury is one of Southern hip-hop’s most promising emerging talents – and also one of the best dressed. At just 19 years of age, he’s collaborated with legends from Gucci Mane to RZA to Tom Morello, with a sound that sprawls across folk, indie and soulful pop while remaining admirably honest. His debut album All We Need was just released last week, and he will be performing material from the excellent full-length in February.

The choice of such an eclectic support act mirrors the stance taken by ASAP Rocky on his last album At.Long.Last.ASAP, where he relied less on commercial bangers and surprised fans with experimental singles like ‘L$D’. With these two young talents sharing the stage, we’re thinking that these shows are going to be an absolute joy to watch.

Pre-sales start tomorrow at 2:00pm, while tickets to the general public go on sale from Thursday October 29. Find all the details here!
