According to reports, YoungBoy Never Broke Again’s MASA tour has earned more than $70 million.
On Thursday (October 30), box Score reporter Touring Data shared the statistics of YB’s first tour in five years. YB’s “Make America Slime Again Tour” is expected to become one of the top ten highest-grossing rap tours in U.S. history, according to the blog. The cross-country tour sold 500,000 tickets to 42 shows and generated more than $70 million in revenue.
The tour’s first show on September 1 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas was the rapper’s most attended concert ever, with 14,846 tickets sold. On September 27, his performance at the Barclays Center in New York City broke his highest-grossing record, taking in $1.9 million.
YB celebrated the achievement in a video shared on social media on Thursday with his booking agent, Andrew Leiber.
“This is the highest-grossing tour in the country,” Leiber said in the video. “This guy did it. Top 10.”
YoungBoy’s tour was very successful, but it wasn’t without its share of incidents. Two shows in Chicago and Atlanta have been canceled. On September 21, a fan attacked a stadium employee during a show at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
YB’s two shows in New Orleans required hundreds of extra police officers. During the first show, a fight broke out in the crowd. YB also had to be rescued by police after being surrounded by fans on Bourbon St. near the arena. During the second show, fans without tickets attempted to storm the venue, causing the venue to be locked down.
The Louisiana rapper has seven shows left on his tour, which ends in Seattle on November 12.
