Westside Boogie is heading out on tour this fall. Alongside Grip, the California native will embark on the 16-date “More Black Superheroes” tour. Things will kick off on September 17, 2022 in Detroit, Michigan before stopping in Toronto, Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Atlanta, New Orleans, Houston, Dallas, Austin, Phoenix, San Diego, Sacramento, Oakland and Washington, D.C. Boogie and Grip will bring things to a close on October 9, 2022 in Los Angeles, California.
Westside Boogie’s tour kicks off after the release of the California native’s sophomore album, More Black Superheroes. The 12-track project is led by “Aight” featuring Shelley and “Nonchalant” featuring Mamii. It also includes guest appearances from Soulja Boy, Storm Ford, Smino, Teezo Touchdown, Kalan.FrFr. and Snoop Dogg.
“This album is about embracing our powers. This album is for you because you survived all your trials, for the black fathers that go out in the world and feel like they have to hide all our true feelings because it seems weak to express how you’re hurt but no that’s one of your biggest strengths,” Westside Boogie said about the album.
“For the people that feel boxed by the world and have to hide there many sides ..I love you let’s heal together.”
Critically, the album has received a 7.3 rating from Pitchfork. Among fans, it has been called one of the five best albums of 2022 thus far and “really f*cking good.” To this Def Pen writer, it’s definitely worth your time.
