When it comes to hip-hop history, some albums are more than just music — they’re cultural milestones. This fall, two of the most celebrated records in rap history will share the same stage when Raekwon and Mobb Deep’s Havoc join forces for an epic 30th anniversary tour.
The 19-city run will celebrate Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… (aka the “Purple Tape”) and The Infamous, two game-changing projects that redefined East Coast rap in the mid-90s.
And for the first time ever, fans will see Raekwon and Havoc perform together in a single, seamless set filled with timeless hits, surprise guests, and the kind of raw energy only hip-hop legends can deliver.
A Tour For The Hip-Hop History Books
Produced by Live Nation and presented by LOUD Live, the tour kicks off November 13 in Portland, Oregon, and will make stops in major cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, and Miami Beach.
Speaking on the upcoming shows, Raekwon promised, “Me and Havoc from Mobb will be pure hip-hop at its finest. This is gonna take rap shows to the next level — guaranteed!”
Havoc echoed the sentiment, adding, “The fans can expect nothing less than pure, raw, unfiltered energy on stage. This will be a tour the fans will never forget.”
Why This Tour Matters To The Culture
Steve Rifkind, CEO of LOUD Live, summed it up perfectly: “This tour defines what hip-hop means to the culture — 30 years of greatness, and two Top 10 hip-hop albums of all time.”
The bond between Wu-Tang Clan and Mobb Deep runs deep, spanning over three decades of mutual respect and collaboration.
This tour isn’t just about nostalgia, it’s a celebration of legacy, artistry, and the kind of music that shaped generations.
