BABY KEEM ANNOUNCES THE MELODIC BLUE TOUR

Today, Baby Keem, the world’s most exciting new rap talent, has announced The Melodic Blue tour, with 14 shows across North America in 2021, kicking off November 9.

The announcement follows the release of Keem’s new album, The Melodic Blue, which debuted at #5 on the Billboard 200 chart, earning Keem his first top 40 achievement and critical acclaim from publications such as Rolling Stone who stated “[he] is sharp, focused…much of Keem’s appeal lies in his adaptability…this multifaceted freshman has a knack for hitting a plucky pocket as well as crafting a mellifluous hook.” 

In a string of announcements since then, Keem has re-released The Melodic Blue with a new Brent Faiyaz feature on “lost souls” and added hit tracks “hooligan” and “no sense,” put out two new videos for “issues” and “first order of business,” and performed “issues” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, his first late-night TV appearance.

An artist whose rise to recognition has been built upon distinct lyrical finesse and incredible production, twenty-year-old artist Baby Keem is already revered as one of the best in the game, with his 2021 album The Melodic Blue earning him global critical acclaim, having been honored on XXL’s Freshman List, with co-signs from the likes of Drake, Brent Faiyaz, Chloe Bailey, Beyonce, Travis Scott, Kanye, and Kendrick Lamar

The Melodic Blue is Keem’s third project following 2018’s cult record The Sound of Bad Habit and 2019’s Die for My Bitch, which featured the breakout hit, “Orange Soda.” He has appeared on the cover of i-D, XXL, Crack and Numero, starred in the pgLang for Calvin Klein campaign and performed live this summer at festivals including Lyrical Lemonade and Made In America. Notwithstanding, 2021 has seen Keem feature on Kanye’s DONDA, with his own feature releases including “family ties” with Kendrick Lamar and “durag activity” with Travis Scott.

Fourteen of the album’s tracks feature production by Keem himself, with other notable producers including CardoGotWings, Jahaan Sweet, Sounwave, 30 Roc, Scott Bridgeway and Dahi.

Keem is artist one to partner with pgLang, Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free’s at-service company which launched in March 2020. A visual mission statement titled ‘welcome to pgLang’, starring Baby Keem, can be seen at www.pg-lang.com.
