Drake's 2012 "Club Paradise Tour" Dates Released

October's Very Own will finally be taking his sophomore album around the country and across the pond when he begins his "Club Paradise Tour" this upcoming February. Starting on the 14th, Drake will play 17 shows across the U.S. and then follow that up with 18 more shows throughout Europe. Special guests Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky will join him on the nearly two and a half month adventure.

My only complaint is that with this being one of the most anticipated tours around next year, why is there is not a single stop in the Northeast?

Jay-Z To Perform At Carnegie Hall [Video]

What's the over/under on how many times he performs "Ni**as In Paris"?

"With the pair of shows — which will be held at Carnegie’s Stern Auditorium — Jay aims to raise millions of dollars for the United Way of New York City and the Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation in an effort to put low-income NYC students in a position to attend college.


Shortly after 11 a.m. Thursday, Hov — as well as top brass from Carnegie Hall, the United Way and the Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation — gathered in Carnegie to announce the concert and talk about their fundraising efforts. Tickets for the dates will be sold privately and priced at a premium rate, fetching anywhere from $500 to $2,500 to raise a significant pot of money for the charity.


Regular fans aren’t completely shut out, though. On January 30, a number of reasonably priced tickets will go on sale to the public. The publicly sold seats are being released so close to the concert date in hopes of curtailing scalping. – MTV"
