ABOUT JUICY J:
The new tour takes its name from Juicy J’s upcoming sophomore solo effort, Rubba Band Business: The Album. The follow up to 2013’s Stay Trippy is set for an early winter release on Columbia Records/Kemosabe. The album is an homage to Juicy J’s iconic mixtape series of the same name. It reunites him with the series’ producer, Lex Luger, who produced a heavy portion of the album. The collection of songs manages to edge his music to new creative heights, adding yet another forward thinking notch to his robust resume. The project includes the recently released “Ballin” featuring Kanye West as well as “No English” featuring Travis Scott. Juicy J has kept himself quite busy in the lead up to the album, with an outpour of creativity in the form of two recent mixtapes: this summer’s Lit In Ceylon and this fall’s #MUSTBENICE. Juicy J also released his much-discussed collaborative album with Wiz Khalifa and TM88, TGOD Mafia: Rude Awakening. Outside of the studio, Juicy J is further proving his mogul status with several ventures, including his own line of award-winning Cannabis, Green Suicide, and is the face of Colt 45 malt liquor. Most recently, Juicy J announced the launch of his upcoming clothing collection and lifestyle brand, Mo’Faces, with an already sold-out limited run of T-shirts.

ABOUT BELLY:
Over the past several years, Belly has quickly made a name for himself as one of the most exciting and promising rising artists, both behind the mixing console and on the stage. With a catalogue full of cerebral, gritty music, the Roc Nation artist made waves with the 2016 RIAA Gold-certified single “Might Not” (featuring The Weeknd), off of 2015’s Up For Days, which spent a month atop the Rhythmic Radio charts on Billboard. After releasing Another Day In Paradise earlier in 2016, Belly released the 11-track mixtape Inzombia this past Friday to acclaim. Belly is also a highly decorated songwriter and producer. The OSCAR-nominated and GRAMMY Award-winning songwriter has worked with artist like The Weeknd, Lil Wayne, Future, Travis Scott, Kehlani, Ariana Grande, Young Thug, Juicy J, French Montana, Ty Dolla $ign and Banks. Recently, Belly was awarded the “Songwriter of the Year” award at the 2016 SOCAN (Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) Awards for his significant contribution to popular music over the past year.
