Missy Elliott has once again flipped it and reversed it.
This summer, the popular rapper — and first female Hip-Hop artist inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — is embarking on her first-ever headlining tour with special guests Busta Rhymes, Ciara and Timbaland.
The 24-concert jaunt, dubbed the ‘Out Of This World Tour,’ will send the quartet to arenas all over North America including Belmont Park, NY’s UBS Arena on Aug. 3, Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Aug. 9 and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Aug. 12.
“Fans have been asking me to tour forever but I wanted to wait until I felt the time was right because I knew if I was ever going to do it, I had to do it big, and I had to do it with family,” the 52-year-old Elliott shared in a press release.
“Get ready to be taken OUT OF THIS WORLD with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We can’t wait to share this experience with the fans!”
And if you’re a fan that can’t wait to “Get Ur Freak On” with Elliott, tickets are available for all 24 North American concerts as soon as today.
Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, April 12, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.
