Jay-Z & Kanye announce European Tour 

Hip Hop heavyweights Jay-Z and Kanye West announced this afternoon the dates of their Watch The Throne tour.

The dynamic duo collaborated on an album project entitled Watch The Throne in 2011.

Regardless of the fact that they used no promotion or advertising and somehow managing to avoid any online leaks before the release date, it stormed to Number 1 in the U.S Billboard charts and reached Number 3 in the UK.

The tour is expected to feature songs from their collaborative album as well as never before heard catalogued songs. The single ‘Otis’ from their album won them Grammy last week for Best Rap performance, although both rappers failed to show up to the ceremony, and they are nominated tonight at the Brit Awards for Best group. (a bit of a random category i must admit)

The 3-day UK tour will start off at the London’s o2 Arena on May 20^th followed by Manchester’s Evening News Arena 11^th June and ending at Birmingham’s LG Arena 13^th June before jetting off to continue the tour through Europe.

Believe me, I will be there at the London show! I have wanted to see one of these Rap icons live in concert for so long and have not had the chance. Since they will be sharing the same stage, it would be criminal not to get a ticket!! Tickets go on sale 9am Feb 24^th and are guaranteed to sell like hot cakes.
