Burna Boy is already planning to take his upcoming album, No Sign of Weakness, on the road this winter with a headlining North American tour, he announced Wednesday (June 18).
The 17-date trek kicks off on Nov. 12 at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo., becoming the first Nigerian artist to headline the iconic venue. The tour will also go through major cities including Los Angeles, Houston, Chicago, Boston and Atlanta before wrapping up with two dates at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, on Dec. 17 and 18. With the exception of his history-making opening show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the No Sign of Weakness Tour will feature the African Giant performing on a 360-degree stage in the middle of the floor.
Burna is releasing his eighth studio album on July 11 via Spaceship, Bad Habit and Atlantic Records. So far, he’s released four singles ahead of the project: “Bundle by Bundle,” “Update,” “Sweet Love” and “TaTaTa” featuring Travis Scott.
No Sign of Weakness will arrive two years after the Afro-fusion superstar’s last album, I Told Them…. The 15-track LP reached No. 31 on the Billboard 200 and No. 2 on World Albums, and earned a 2024 Grammy nomination for best global music album. Singles “Sittin’ on Top of the World,” featuring 21 Savage on the remix, and “City Boys” were also up for Grammys, for best melodic rap performance and best African music performance, respectively.
