It’s got to be right… We gon’ do this. It’s gon’ be a show like you never seen before.” In the caption, he further explained, “I have to give my fans an experience that is unforgettable. I want to make sure everything is done right, and in order to do that, I had to change some things up. The updated tour dates are now live… I’ll see you there. More to come.”
18 rescheduled shows have now been announced, the first taking place in Baltimore on Aug. 11, with the last show currently scheduled for Nov. 19 in Boston.
