Giggs announces 2019 UK tour dates
The shows include a huge hometown gig at London's The SSE Arena, Wembley.
Giggs has announced details of a forthcoming UK headline tour.
The newly announced run of dates kicks off in Newcastle on Friday 25 November 2019 before heading to Bristol, Birmingham, Bournemouth, Manchester, Nottingham and London.
The announcement follows last week’s reveal of the Peckham-born rapper’s brand new single Terminator feat. Swizz Beatz. Watch the official video for the track below:
The track is the latest single to be taken from Giggs’ studio album BIG BAD…. Released in February, the album peaked at No.6 on the Official UK Albums Chart and also features the singles 187, Baby and Don’t Go Hungry.
The record welcomes guest appearances from a host of UK and US hip hop heavyweights including Jadakiss, Labrinth, Ghetts, Lil Yachty, French Montana and Wretch 32.
BIG BAD… is the rapper’s fifth album release following 2008’s Walk in da Park, 2010’s Let Em Have It, 2013’s When Will it Stop and 2016’s Landlord.
