KREPT & KONAN ANNOUNCE 2019 UK & IRELAND TOUR (@KreptandKonan) (@LiveNationUK)

By Rishma Dhaliwal • On Events

KKONANKrept & Konan’s 2019 Head­line UK & Ire­land Tour will see the boys head out on the road again for the first time since their head­line sold out show at Alex­an­dra Palace last Autumn. Encom­passing eight shows across eight cit­ies it will kick off on 23rd Novem­ber at Olympic Theatre, Dub­lin and wrap up on 5th Decem­ber at The O2, Lon­don, (see below for details on all dates).

The announce­ment of Krept & Konan’s 2019 Head­line UK & Ire­land Tour fol­lows the release of I Spy ft. Head­ie One and K Trap, which deb­uted at #18 in the UK charts on release, (mak­ing it Krept & Konan’s second Top 20 single), and was the first offi­cial single to be lif­ted from Krept & Konan’s highly anti­cip­ated forth­com­ing second stu­dio album.

‘I Spy’ came hot on the heels of their release of Ban Drill (with its accom­pa­ny­ing Rap­man dir­ec­ted short­film), which addressed the con­tro­ver­sial move by the State and the Police to ban Drill music. Around the release of Ban Drill, Krept & Kon­an launched a change.orgpetition (ask­ing the CPS to ‘stop silen­cing musi­cians’) and were invited by Diane Abbott MP to the Houses of Par­lia­ment to debate­wheth­er or not cen­sor­ing Drill music and pro­sec­ut­ing Drill artists is an effect­ive way to com­bat crime.

In 2017 Krept and Kon­an made his­tory with 7 DAYS and 7 NIGHTS, when they became the first act ever to have two mix­tapes sim­ul­tan­eously enter the Top 10 of the Offi­cial UK Albums chart. They’ve now notched up a #2 album, two top 10 mix­tapes (with 7 DAYS now cer­ti­fied sil­ver), one plat­in­um single (Freak Of The Week ft. Jeremih), three sil­ver singles, and a total of over half a bil­lion streams. The past year alone has seen Krept & Kon­an sell out a head­line show at Alex­an­dra Palace, per­form main slots at Wire­less and Read­ing & Leeds Fest­ivals, and suc­cess­fully launch their res­taur­ant Crepes & Cones in their nat­ive Croy­don.
