Lil Wayne is headed out for his biggest tour in years.
In support of his forthcoming record "Tha Carter VI," Wayne will stop in 34 cities, treating fans to a set list that celebrates many of the biggest songs from his two-decade "Carter" album series.
Rappers Tyga and Belly Gang Kushington will open for Wayne at all 34 stops. While fans may be eager to hear some of the rapper's throwback anthems, songs from his newest project remain a mystery.
"Tha Carter VI" – which has not dropped yet – is rumored to be coming June 6. Teasing the project in a Cetaphil ad that ran during the Super Bowl, actors in the commercial wore jerseys with the numbers 06, 06, and 25 and at the conclusion, a door is displayed with the text "Do not disturb 'till 06-06-25, Carter VI."
Releasing the original "Carter" album in 2004, Wayne has followed up the project every two to three years since with a new release, with the exception of "Carter V" which was delayed a number of years.
A staple in the hip-hop sphere, known for his tongue-twistingly fast rhymes and signature high pitch, the rapper has now made fans wait almost seven years for a new drop.
The tour will kick off June 6, the same day as the rumored album release at Madison Square Garden — Lil Wayne's first-ever headlining show at the iconic New York arena — and wind across North America before wrapping up Oct. 2 in West Palm Beach, Florida.
How to get Lil Wayne tour tickets, presale details
Tickets for Lil Wayne's tour stops will go on sale at 10 a.m. ET June 6 through Ticketmaster, following various presale windows that start June 4.
Both the artist and VIP presale kick off June 4 at 10 a.m. ET, while the Live Nation presale begins June 5 at the same time.
Details are here.

Zach Bryan reignites feud with Kansas City Chiefs fans before San Francisco show
Country music star Zach Bryan has vowed never to return to Kansas City, escalating a simmering feud with Chiefs fans just days before his scheduled performance with Kings of Leon at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. The timing — and location — are notable. The 'Something in the Orange' singer will take the stage Friday, Aug. 15, in the Bay Area, home to the 49ers, who lost to the Chiefs in this year's Super Bowl. Making matters more interesting, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — a key part of that win — is also Taylor Swift's boyfriend, and Bryan has had past online dustups involving the pop superstar as well. Bryan, a Grammy-winning artist and vocal Philadelphia Eagles supporter, reignited tensions last week on X after taunting Chiefs fans still stung by the Eagles' dominant 40-22 win over Kansas City in Super Bowl LIX. 'Where are all the three peat people from last year:/,' he wrote on Friday, Aug. 8, referencing the Eagles' 40-22 victory over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. The post prompted a wave of angry replies from Kansas City loyalists, with one user criticizing Bryan for targeting the very fanbase that 'sells out his shows.' But Bryan didn't hold back. 'Please understand I will never play in Kansas City,' he replied. In another post, he added, 'I'll be about to finish my show and then get a taunting call if I play at that stadium.' Bryan, 29, has played in Kansas City multiple times, most recently in August 2024 at the T-Mobile Center. But his social media dialog suggests those may have been his final performances in the city. When a fan asked him to remove a track recorded live at a previous show in Kansas City from his live album, he responded, 'Done brother.' But he seemed to have slightly softened his stance about the region in a follow-up post two days later, declaring, 'I miss you Bonner Springs.' Referencing the nearby town, about 20 miles away from Kansas City, he added: 'Coming to play next year.' The controversy builds on Bryan's history of provocative posts. In September 2024, he faced backlash for tweeting, 'Eagles > Chiefs' and 'Kanye > Taylor,' ending the message with 'Who's with me?' He later deleted the post and apologized, saying he had been intoxicated at the time. 'For the record guys I wasn't coming for Taylor the other night,' Bryan explained on Instagram. 'I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong… I love Taylor's music and pray you guys know I'm human and tweet stupid things often. Hope one day I can explain this to her.' In a follow-up, he added that he had been 'going through a hard time' and admitted to 'projecting a little.' 'To be completely honest, it just came off as rude and desensitized to Taylor,' Bryan wrote in an Instagram Story. 'I respect her so much as a musician… The last thing I want is people thinking I don't appreciate and love what she has done for music.'

Jordon Hudson and Bill Belichick's ex, Linda Holliday, attend same Nantucket party months after holiday clash
It seems the ice has thawed in Nantucket. Jordon Hudson and Linda Holliday were spotted at the same Massachusetts fundraiser on Saturday, roughly eight months after Bill Belichick's current gal pal and his ex-girlfriend, respectively, clashed at a holiday affair. TMZ reported Monday that 'no issues were seen by partygoers' at the Boston Pops on Nantucket soiree, which is 'believed to be [Hudson and Holliday's] first public run-in' since the Nantucket Dreamland encounter last December, when Holliday confronted Hudson. 5 Bill Belichick and girlfriend Jordon Hudson in February 2025.

Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Holliday — who split from Belichick, 73, in 2023 after 16 years of dating — told organizers at the December 2024 gathering she felt Hudson's 'presence was inappropriate, since the event was widely advertised as a party headlined by her daughters,' and asked a staffer to 'remove Ms. Hudson from the premises,' according to an incident report obtained by TMZ in May. Holliday and two others confronted Hudson on the dance floor, and when a staffer approached Hudson about whether 'she thought it was a good idea to be there,' the former college cheerleader defended herself, stating she hadn't done anything wrong. 5 Linda Holliday and Bill Belichick dated for 16 years before their breakup was reported in 2023.
