The tour season is full of effect. With the late five-year run of Covid-19’s latest popularity, the artist’s itinerary is stronger than ever, making it difficult for fans to decide which show to attend. A falling economy will only increase frustration.
Which rappers will tour in 2025?
2025 is an important year for hip-hop tours. Drake has beaten his talent on the Anita Max Win Tour and is currently preparing to go on the road again with PartyNextdoor on the $OME $exy $HOWS on the European European Tour. Tyler, the creator is currently promoting his massive world tour of his 2024 Chromakopia album. Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s GNX World Tour are currently breaking travel records after dominating hip-hop in 2024.
Besides rappers like Lil Wayne, Lil Baby, Wu-Tang Clan, Clipse, Ice Cube, Latto, Chris Brown, etc., there are many more people participating or preparing for a trip.
What is the average price for a hip-hop concert?
According to Seatgeek, the average price of hip-hop concert tickets is $108. Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s tour are the most expensive concerts of 2025, with an average ticket price of $206. Drake is behind them, with an average ticket price of $191.
The high ticket prices don’t seem to hurt the rap elite, including K-Dot, whose tours have been breaking left and right records.
The economy makes it hard to participate in a tour
With so many tours at once, fans have to make some tough decisions about which one to attend. Economic disruption will not help either. With everything increasing costs, fans are more important on the plate than trying to figure out if the peak concert price is on the budget.
According to Yahoo! Finance, due to economic uncertainty, most Americans cut discretionary spending in 2025. The population of the 20- to 40-year-olds is guiding this decline, which is consistent with the average age of hip-hop fans. CNBC reported in June that most Americans can no longer afford the lowest quality of life.
The rapper must be back outside. However, due to the economic crisis and many shows to choose from, fans are forced to make some tough choices.
