The tour will arrive months removed from Savage’s american dream, which came out on Jan. 12. The 15-song LP boasted features from Mariah the Scientist, Lil Durk, Travis Scott, Doja Cat, Young Thug, and more. Meanwhile, Metro Boomin, Cardo, London on da Track, and Kid Hazel were among the beatmakers to lend contributions on the production side.
Standout cuts included “redrum,” “pop ur s**t,” and “all of me.” Additionally, Savage performed “should’ve wore a bonnet” featuring Brent Faiyaz and the Summer Walker-assisted “prove it” from the body of work during “Saturday Night Live” on Feb. 24.

american dream debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. According to Luminate, it also garnered 133,000 album-equivalent units in the U.S. in the week ending on Jan. 18.
Unfortunately for fans, the project didn’t get the accompanying film that was teased in the week leading up to its release. During an interview with Shannon Sharpe for “Club Shay Shay,” Savage revealed the trailer was a parody.
“I feel like [a documentary about my life could come out] one day,” the London-born rapper said. “They would hate on it now, though, because they gon’ be like, ‘What the f**k [does] 21 Savage deserve a story for? [What did they make a] movie about him for? What he did?’ You know how they do.”
