A Tribe Called Quest and Kendrick Lamar opening for Kanye West in NYC (separately)

Tribe

As discussed, Kanye West is going on his first solo headlining tour in five years, and as you may know, Kendrick Lamar is set to open most of it, but no openers were ever announced for the four NYC shows. Now it’s finally been announced that Kendrick opens two of them, and the other two are being opened by… legendary Queens crew A Tribe Called Quest! The schedule for NYC looks like this:

November 19 – Barclays Center w/ Kendrick Lamar
November 20 – Barclays Center w/ A Tribe Called Quest
November 23 – Madison Square Garden w/ Kendrick Lamar
November 24 – Madison Square Garden w/ A Tribe Called Quest

Tickets for all four shows are still available.

A Tribe Called Quest’s Ali Shaheed Muhammad DJs the RSVPed-out NPR CMJ showcase that Pusha T (whose new album Kanye produced) plays.

Kendrick Lamar (who’s on that Pusha T album) joins his Black Hippy mate Schoolboy Q and others for Power 105.1’s Powerhouse at Barclays Center on November 2 (tickets).

Meanwhile, Schoolboy Q plays a CMJ show this week at Webster Hall on Wednesday (10/16) with Casey Veggies, three A$AP Mob members, Bishop Nehru, The Bots and more (tickets).
