Grammy-nominated hip-hop artist Joyner Lucas announced plans for his “Not Now I’m Busy” headlining tour, a 24-city trek that will kick off on May 11 in Minneapolis at Uptown Theater and will include special appearances from rappers Millyz and Dax.
Joyner’s tour will make a stop in Toronto, Canada along with several major cities across the United States, including Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, Atlanta, Houston and many more. To punctuate the end of his cross-country tour, Joyner will be bringing back Joyner Fest on June 22 in his hometown of Worcester, Massachusetts at DCU Center.
It will mark the long-awaited return of Joyner Fest, which he previously hosted the festival in Nov. 2021 at The Palladium in front of a sold-out crowd of 8,000. At the time, Joyner Fest also served as a platform for Worcester’s younger, talented artists to showcase their skills.
Tickets for the “Not Now I’m Busy” tour go on sale to the public, starting Friday, March 8 at 10 am local time on Joyner’s website HERE. Official pre-sale tickets will be available beginning Wednesday, March 6 and run through Thursday, March 7 at 10 pm local time.
The tour will accompany the forthcoming release of Joyner’s highly-anticipated, sophomore studio album, Not Now I’m Busy. The New England native just revealed plans to drop the album on March 22 and unveiled brand-new artwork for the project.
Most recently, Joyner unveiled his new single “Sticks & Stones (feat. Conway The Machine) along with a corresponding music video that you can watch HERE. His upcoming new album is currently available for pre-order HERE and will include Joyner’s standout songs, such as “24 Hours to Live,” “Seventeen,” “Broski,” and “Cut U Off (feat. YoungBoy Never Broke Again),” among others.
Joyner previously toured in 2022, when he embarked on the “ADHD Tour” with West Coast rapper Symba serving as his opening act. The tour highlighted Joyner’s last album ADHD, which debuted in the Top-10 of the Billboard 200, earned RIAA gold certification, sparked a much-needed conversation about mental health and established a new template for success for independent artists.
