Ghostface To Headline Adult Swim’s First Nationwide Hip-hop Tour
by admin ·
Ghostface Killah is scheduled to headline the hip-hip phase of Adult Swim’s first nationwide concert tours. On October 1, a 12-campus hip-hop tour kicks off at the State University of New York campus in Albany, and will see the Wu Tang legend accompanied by Atlanta’s Dungeon Family veteran Witchdoctor.
Adult Swim, the Cartoon Network’s highly rated late-night programming block for young adults, will also sponsor a 12-campus heavy metal tour headlined by And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead.
Ghostface Killah, real name Dennis Coles and aka Tony Starks, Ironman, Ghost Deini, Pretty Toney, Wally Champ, GFK and Starky Love, last blessed us with his b-cut compilation Hidden Darts earlier this year and will drop a MF Doom collabo set in the near future.
Witchdoctor, also known as Eric Johnson, is a fixture of the Southern rap game who’s worked with fellow Dungeon Family members including OutKast and Goodie Mob. Witchdoctor’s new album, Diary of an American Witchdoctor, will drop October 23 on Adult Swim’s Williams Street record label.
