Dave Chappelle and Killer Mike will provide seven lucky cities with a can’t-miss night of music and comedy next month when the pair embark on the Still Talkin That Shit! Tour.
The trek kicks off Nov. 15 at Detroit’s Fox Theatre before moving to Killer Mike’s native Atlanta, the Chicago area, Boston, New York City, Oakland, and Long Beach over its too-brief itinerary.
Tickets for the co-headlining tour go on sale Friday, Oct. 25 via Ticketmaster. The gigs are a “phone-free experience,” with attendees of all shows required to deposit their cell phones and smart watches in Yondr pouches.
Chappelle and Killer Mike previously collaborated on the video for the rapper’s 2022 single “Run,” which featured a monologue by the comedian. “If you’re looking at this video, certain things are gonna stand out: Obviously, there’s a war going on for people who want justice and righteousness, and there’s a war that’s symbolized by what you would notice is old Confederate uniforms and Nazi-like uniforms,” Killer Mike said at the time.
“I wanted this video — that was inspired by the monologue that Dave Chappelle did at the beginning — to be representative that there’s a fight, the spiritual fight, that is going on every single day with us.”
The Still Talkin That Shit! Tour arrives just days after the presidential election. In both 2016 and 2020, Chappelle served as the host of Saturday Night Live following those Election Days; the show has not yet revealed who will be hosting this time around.
