Extending the life of African Giant, his most successful album to date, Burna Boy has unveiled plans to take the Grammy-nominated album on the road once again on the Twice As Tall Tour. The tour announcement comes after The Nigerian afro-fusion completed a media tour run of sorts thanks to appearances on Rap Radar, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
The tour presents the perfect opportunity for Burna Boy to take advantage of the added fame and boosted popularity he’s received since the release of African Giant. The tour is divided into two legs in the US and Europe, with the US leg kicking off in early May and including appearances at May’s Broccoli City Festival and The Roots Picnic, before concluding in early June. After a three week break, Burna will pick things up again for the European leg which places him overseas for two months. See the tour dates below.
