After serving a one-year sentence for tax fraud, American rapper DMX isn’t wasting any time now. The 48-year-old is planning to embark on a tour in honor of the 20th anniversary of his seminal record It’s Dark, and Hell Is Hot.
Although the album was released in 1998, DMX spent 2018 in prison so he couldn’t celebrate the anniversary, but is determined to make up for it now.
The trip will see “Lord Give Me a Sign” rapper visit 32 cities in the United States, with the first show scheduled for March 8th in Oklahoma City. After this, he will visit Boston, New York City, Atlanta, Dallas, Detroit, and Chicago among other stops before wrapping up the tour in Pittsburgh on May 7th.
