Let the battle of the egos begin: Kanye West and Jay-Z have both announced North American tours on the same day in what will be known as “what vastly overrated rapper will you overpay for?”
Just a few hours after West announced his first tour in 5 years, Jay-Z took it upon himself to regain the spotlight for a few and announce his own tour. West’s “Yeezus Tour” will begin Octobor 19 in Seattle and wrap up in Houston while Jay-Z’s “Magna Carter Tour” will begin on November 30 in St. Paul, Minnesota.
All of this has of course started talks that perhaps West and Jay-Z are feuding as in the past Jay-Z announced his “Magna Carta Holy Grail” album during West’s “Yeezus” promotional period. Although I think this is just friendly competition between two people who are striving to be the most overexposed, annoying rappers.
What do you think of West and Jay-Z announcing their tours on the same day? Will you be buying tickets to see either of them?
