Ahead of tomorrow’s release of Ghetto Gods, the fourth album from Atlanta hip-hop duo EarthGang, the guys have announced a promotional “Biodeghettable” world tour. Late in the U.S. portion of the tour, a June 5 performance at St. Petersburg’s Jannus Live will go down.
Tickets to see EarthGang play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg, Florida on June 5 go on sale Friday, Feb. 25 and start at $32.50. Ghetto Gods focuses on how crappy these last few years have been, and how unbelievable it is that racism in general still exists, and is still being dealt with by those targeted. This is especially true in as southern of a place as Atlanta, which will be the duo’s penultimate stop on its tour, as a homecoming of sorts.
For those of you way down south, Olu and WowGr8—who brought EarthGang to open for Simo at Orpheum in 2019—will kick off this tour at the Okeechobee Music Festival next Friday and two days after the Tampa stop, Ft. Lauderdale’s Revolution Live will host them.
