The Dark Aura Tour was expected to begin on October 16 in Boston with stops in Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, Atlanta and more. The tour also included a special hometown performance in Brooklyn on November 19 before it was to wrap in Philadelphia on November 20.
The 25-city trek would have followed the release of Joey Bada$$’s latest project, Lonely At The Top, which arrived on August 29. It marks his first album since 2022’s 2000 LP and follow-up to several singles, including “The Ruler’s Back,” “Sorry Not Sorry,” “Pardon Me,” “THE FINALS,” “MY TOWN,” and “CRASH DUMMY.”
As for Rapsody, the North Carolina native earned her first Grammy at the 67th Grammy Awards in February, taking home the honor for Best Melodic Rap Performance for her collaboration with Erykah Badu, “3:AM,” from her acclaimed album Please Don’t Cry.
She also received a Best Rap Album nod and Best Rap Song for “Laila’s Wisdom” in 2018 and a shared nomination with Kendrick Lamar in the Album of the Year category for her work on To Pimp a Butterfly. More recently, she joined the women of Passing the Crown for a show in Denver, Colorado, where she was backed by a live all-female band.
