Hip-hop stars Nas and Ms. Lauryn Hill will join together this fall for a 10 stop tour kicking off October 29 at the Palladium Ballroom in Dallas, TX. The tour, titiled Life is Good/Black Rage, will run for 3 weeks winding down on November 19 at the Fox Theater in Oakland, CA. Although there are only 10 dates the tour does a good job of spanning the United States with stops scheduled from California, to Chicago, and even up to Boston.

Nas and Hill recently hit the stage together for Hot 97’s Summer Jam in June and again at Rock the Bells earlier this month in September. Their summer success has surely encouraged them to tour together this fall. The two music icons will be a hot tour for long-time hip-hop fans.

According to Pollstar.com, Nas, referred to the long awaited tour with Hill as, “This is history. Better late than never. Life is good!”

The Life is Good/Black Rage tour is named after Nas’ most recent and 10th album, Life is Good, and Hill’s soon-to-be released single “Black Rage.”
