Rapsody Announces A Black Woman Created This Tour

Rapsody has been on a steady tour grind since dropping the masterful EVE album, her follow-up to 2017’s Laila’s Wisdom. 

On the heels of a sizable run with Big K.R.I.T. and special guest Domani Harris, the Grammy Award-nominated MC has announced yet another tour dubbed A Black Woman Created This Tour.

She made the announcement on Wednesday (December 4) with an Instagram video.

“A BLACK WOMAN CREATED THIS TOUR,” the caption reads. “All dates. Can’t wait to see you. Link to tix in bio.”

Kicking off on February 4, 2020 in Philadelphia, the tour boasts 25 dates all across North America. It wraps up on March 13 in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Despite the critical acclaim EVE received from countless publications, including a perfect 5.0 rating from HipHopDX, the 16-track project was snubbed by the Grammy Awards.

Rap expressed she was “frustrated…beyond” by the perceived oversight in an Instagram post earlier this month.

Thank you for the LOVE you award me. I see you. The ones who lend me your ear, words, support. Every time. I rarely, if ever, show my cards or that I’m human when it comes to my music career. Feel like opening up some today, tho. Today…..disappointed. Yes. Frustrated…beyond. But, you have to tell yourself the good fight is never an easy one. And the people that are the faces of the purpose behind your art are what makes creating not empty: with awards. nominations, or none at all. Not to hold you, the acknowledgment for your craft indeed feels amazing!! I haven’t been nominated for much but what I have I’m thankful for. There’s so much power and weight in numbers, nominations and awards….we artist know what that does for our exposure; and for the many, validation. And you want people to continue to discover and play and be inspired by the music. That’s what I get excited about anyway. But, hey….we keep on creating. @freddiegibbs …you put out one of the best albums….to everyone nominated for anything congratulations….to all artist who create….keep the microphone, pens, visuals, instruments lit. Art is too important not to share. Mad love. ♥️
