Two of urban music's biggest names are pairing up
Urban music big names T.I. and Akon have announced a three-show tour of the country for this coming October.
The multi-award winning and multi-record selling artists will visit Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, marking T.I.'s first trip down under - he was on the now postponed 2013 Supafest lineup announced earlier this year. Tickets go on sale Thursday 8 August at 9am. The guys will be joined by rapper French Montana in support.
Both performers have released a swag of studio albums over the years and taken home plenty of awards and accolades throughout their respective careers. T.I. has won three Grammys and has eight records under his belt, including his latest, Trouble Man: Heavy Is The Head.
