Where the US leg featured assistance from Travis Scott and D.R.A.M., the European installment will bring James Blake aboard for a 15-date run that covers much of the continent (Germany, Netherlands, France, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, with select stops in the UK.) The tour will commence another year of reign for Kung Fu Kenny, whose fourth studio album has reached platinum status twice over and houses five of the year's most streamed tracks. In the time since its release, he's also assisted SZA on his labelmates' debut album and offered words to Rapsody's new project, returning the favor for a classic "Complexion" verse on To Pimp a Butterfly.
