Playboi Carti has been trying to head out on tour since July 2023, but after clearing several roadblocks, the Opium boss is finally doing it.

Playboi Carti fans have been able to see him on tour thanks to The Weeknd bringing him on as an opener for the After Hours Til Dawn circuit. However, the Vamps haven't been given a proper headlining tour since 2021. That drought appeared to be ending in 2023 after the Georgia luminary announced the Antagonist trek.

Sadly, postponements and a legal battle involving his Opium signees in Homixide Gang led to the eventual cancelation of the tour in March 2024. But the wait appears to be over for good this time as Playboi Carti has just announced the aptly named Antagonist 2.0 tour.

The MUSIC creator is also bringing all of his Opium labelmates along for the ride. That of course includes Destroy Lonely, Ken Carson, Homixide Gang, and ApolloRed1. Excitingly, this marks the first time that the entire collective will be on the road together.

The arena tour spans 28 dates and will strictly be in the United States. It will kick off on October 3 in Salt Lake City, Utah and conclude on December 1 in his hometown. As for tickets, fans will be able to purchase them starting tomorrow, Tuesday, August 26 at 10 a.m. local time. That is the artist presale. The general sale kicks off Friday, August 29 at 10 a.m. local as well.

Some of those include Bronny James's draft stock, a multitude of angles swirling around the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, as well as Diddy's arrest and lawsuits. Separate from the headlines that everyone wants to hear about, he was fortunate enough to help spread Zaytoven's current thoughts at the time around mid-December in 2023. Even though being able to give his expertise on these stories is fulfilling, being able to share his passion for releases trumps that ever so slightly. Having the chance to express his excitement indirectly about what he thinks our readers should be checking out/revisiting grows his passion for writing that much more.
