(AllHipHop News) Nas and Lauryn Hill will hit the road together for the “Life is Good/Black Rage” tour, which will kick off this October. The 18-date tour what kickoff October 6 in Columbia, Maryland and will wind down December 31 at Radio City Music Hall in New York. The tour takes its name from Nas’ latest #1 album Life is Good, as well as Lauryn Hill’s upcoming single “Black Rage,” which is due out this Fall. “I use the performance platform as an opportunity to express the energy of that moment, and the intention behind it,” Lauryn Hill said in a press release. “I’ve been a long-standing rebel against the stale, over commoditization. As artists we have opportunity to help the public evolve, raise consciousness and awareness, teach, heal, enlighten and inspire in ways the democratic process may not be able to touch. So we keep it moving.” This is the first time Nas and Lauryn Hill have toured together as a package, since the release of their hit collaborative single “If I Ruled the World,” from Nas’ 1996 album It Was Written. “This is history,” Nas said. “Better late than never. Life is good!” Check out the tour dates below: October 6th Columbia, MD Merriweather Post Pavilion (NAS ONLY) October 20th Phoenix, AZ Arizona State Fairgrounds (NAS ONLY) October 26th Asheville, NC MOOG Festival (NAS ONLY) October 27th Nashville, TN Riverfront Park (NAS ONLY) October 28th New Orleans, LA Voodoo Festival (NAS ONLY) October 29thDallas, TX Palladium Ballroom October 31stHouston, TX Bayou Music Center November 2ndAtlanta, GA Tabernacle November 3rd Norfolk, VA NorVa Theatre (NAS ONLY) November 4thWashington, DC DAR Constitution Hall November 7thPhiladelphia, PA Electric Factory November 9th Rochester, NY Main Street Armory(NAS ONLY) November 11thBoston, MA House of Blues November 14th Chicago, IL Congress Theatre November 16th Denver, CO Fillmore Auditorium November 17th Magna, UT Salt Air November 19thOakland, CA Fox Oakland Theater December 31st New York, NY Radio City Music Hall (NAS ONLY)
