East London-based rapper Ghetts has announced new tour dates for November this year following the release of his third album ‘Conflicts Of Interest’. He will commence the tour in Dublin and end with a homecoming show in London. Ghetts has announced on social media that pre-sale tickets can be bought at 10am on Wednesday and general sale 10am on Friday.
The 16-track album ‘Conflict Of Interest’ features powerful collaborations with artists including Skepta, Ed Sheeran and Stormzy. Singles such as ‘Proud Family’, ‘Mozambique’ and ‘IC3′ were dropped at the end of last year. The album was met with positive reviews, with The Guardian giving it five stars, saying: “Cinematic in scope, movingly honest, with a phalanx of big-name guests, Justin Clarke’s major-label debut is a dazzling piece of storytelling.”
‘Conflict Of Interest’ reached number two on the UK album charts following a unique campaign named #Ghetts4Number1. Ghetts rode a military tank through central London to promote his album on 24th February, drawing considerable attention from the public. The tank had the title of his new album, ‘Conflict Of Interest’ graffitied on the side. However, the chart battle was beaten by Mogwai, a Scottish rock-band who scored their first number one album in the UK.
Reflecting on the success of his album, Ghetts took it to social media to tell his fans: “The evolution has been amazing, everything I’ve gone through is for a reason and I believe that. God’s timing is everything, and who God bless no man can curse, with that being said who I am today wouldn’t be possible without the support of all of you.”
Ghetts will hold five shows in Ireland and in the UK. Tickets can be bought here. The tour dates are as follows:
13/11/2021 – Academy – Dublin
14/11 – Albert Hall – Manchester
17/11 – O2 Institute – Birmingham
18/11 – SWX – Bristol
20/11 – Roundhouse – London
