Rapsody recently released her fourth studio album to critical acclaim, and she is now set to take her new material on the road.
On Monday (May 20), the 41-year-old MC announced her plans to tour Please Don’t Cry across North America and Europe this fall with Niko Brim. Additionally, she has also promised to add more dates soon and extend the trek to South Africa.
After playing four shows in Europe at the start of September, the “Power” rapper will return to the United States for eighteen more performances. As of now, her run is scheduled to wrap up with two performances in her home state of North Carolina at the end of October.

Rapsody’s latest project features some of Hip Hop’s greatest voices, such as Erykah Badu, Lil Wayne and and many more. During and interview with HipHopDX last week, she revealed that working with Weezy pushed her to keep upping her game.
“I just wanna say what I say and make it fun,” she said. “But then, he sent his verse, and I was like, ‘I gotta match the level of artistry.’ Like, it’s Wayne!
“And I ain’t scared to say it, because he’s one of the GOATs. It is what it is. A lot of artists won’t say it. But I’ll say it: I probably wrote my verse like 27 times.”
