After dropping his Five Five album in March, Miami rapper Pouya is heading out on the road for a supporting tour. Kicking f on May 13 with a performance in Miami for the Rolling Loud festival, Pouya will then travel across 24 states on the 37-date tour.
The rhymer will make stops in New Orleans, Houston, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Boston and more before wrapping up July 7 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. According to the tour flyer, Pouya will also be joined by special guests, which will be announced at a later date. Tickets for the tour are on sale now.
XXL caught up with the "Handshakes" rapper last year, who praised rhymers from his home state Florida who are now finding success. "It's long overdue," he said. "I’ve been doing this since 2011, so I’ve seen everybody come and go and people stay."
"I seen Raider Klan, I seen Denzel Curry, Yung Simmie and now we got XXXTentacion, Lil Pump, Smokepurpp, we got Fat Nick, we got a good scene going," the rapper continued. "I don’t think it’s necessarily late because I think every dog has his day. But it’s good to see that people are waking up. I love to see a fellow Floridian making it. It’s hard out here man."
