Future and Friends ‘One Big Party Tour’ Hits State Farm Arena in Atlanta on Jan. 14, 2023

Atlanta-Born Artist Will Perform in Hometown as Part of MLK Holiday Weekend; Tickets Are On Sale Now at Ticketmaster.com

AG Entertainment Touring and Mammoth Inc. recently announced that Atlanta-born and GRAMMY®-Award winning artist, producer and songwriter Future will be joined by a star-studded lineup for the ‘Future and Friends One Big Party Tour’ on Saturday, January 14th, 2023, at the award-winning State Farm Arena in Atlanta. Future is a singer, songwriter and record producer, having first found musical fame in 2011 when his songs were played at various clubs and events in his hometown of Atlanta. The Atlanta native has garnered dozens of multi-platinum certifications and tens of billions of streams as arguably the biggest new rapper to emerge this decade. Tickets for the ‘Future and Friends One Big Party Tour’ are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com.

Known for a uniquely fluid and melodic yet mumbling vocal style, rapper Future busted out of the South at the dawn of the 2010s with a flurry of mixtapes, high-charting albums, certified platinum singles, and contributions to several other hits as a featured artist. After he scored his first commercial hit via a guest spot on YC’s “Racks” (2011), Future quickly became a key factor in Atlanta’s grip on the Billboard charts, often with production support from fellow Atlanta natives and dwellers such as Metro Boomin, Mike WiLL Made-It, Sonny Digital and Southside. By the end of 2017, Future had amassed 32 Top Ten R&B/hip-hop hits as a headliner and featured artist. Meanwhile, 11 full-length projects — including an all-platinum run of DS2 (2015), Evol (2016), and Future (2017) — debuted within the Top Five of the Billboard 200. Future capped off the 2010s by adding to his Top 20 tally with the GRAMMY® award-winning “King’s Dead,” co-producing a remake of Super Fly, and hitting the top of the Billboard 200 again with The Wizrd (2019). He has since returned to the throne with High Off Life (2020), his eighth proper album. He appeared on four Top Ten R&B/hip-hop hits that went either gold or platinum: Lil Wayne’s “Love Me,” Ace Hood’s “Bugatti,” Rich Gang’s “Tapout,” and Rocko’s “U.O.E.N.O.” Future got an early start on the new decade in January 2020 with “Life Is Good,” another Drake collaboration. He also teamed up with Lil Uzi Vert for the collaborative album ‘Pluto x Baby Pluto’, which was released in November 2020, which debuted at number two on the Billboard charts. Future remained relatively quiet in 2021, but he returned in 2022 for ninth solo ‘LP I NEVER LIKED YOU’, which once again topped the US charts.
