Lupe Fiasco Will Become A Wandering ‘Samurai’ On The Upcoming Tour For His New Album

After releasing his new album Samurai , Lupe Fiasco will make like Zatoichi** and take his skills on the road for a national tour. Rather than worrying about potentially feuding with Kendrick Lamar or squabbling with Kid Cudi , the Chicago rapper is focusing on his own journey, which kicks off October 3 in New York.

Tickets for the tour go on sale on Friday, July 26th at 10 AM local time. You can find more information about Lupe’s Samurai Tour here . See below for the full run of tour dates.

** For those who aren’t into 60-year-old Japanese film franchises, Zatoichi is the titular character of a long-running film series. His classic identifying characteristics are: He’s blind, he’s really good with a sword, and he wanders. They’re fun movies.
