Summer 2018 is shaping up to be Drake's for the taking. The GRAMMY-winning rapper has announced his new album, Scorpion, will arrive in June (exact date is still TBA), he's teed up the album and the season with two hit singles so far this year, "God's Plan" and "Nice For What," and now he's announced a massive summer and fall tour with Migos aptly titled The Aubrey And The Three Amigos Tour.

The extensive 41-date trek will kick off July 6 in Salt Lake City and stretch across arenas in North America through November, when it wraps in Atlanta on Nov. 17. Notable cities in its path include Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas, and Drizzy's hometown of Toronto, where the tour will stop for two shows at the Air Canada Center Aug. 10 and 11.
So far this year, Drake has dropped his Scary Hours EP in January, followed by the single "God's Plan" in February, which made him the first solo artist in history to keep more than one song in the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for double-digit weeks. In April, Drake dropped "Nice For What," complete with a Lauryn Hill sample and star-studded music video. The song bested "God's Plan" on the Billboard 100, replacing it in the No. 1 slot where it has stayed since entering the chart. All of this success makes his fifth LP, Scorpion, one of the most anticipated albums of the year.
Migos have been busy, too, releasing their third studio album, Culture II in January. The album has spent 14 weeks on the Billboard 200, earning the No. 1 spot in Feb. 18. The Atlanta-based trio will make a series of festival appearances this summer prior to hitting the road with Drake.
Tickets for The Aubrey And The Three Amigos Tour go on sale to the general public on May 18 via Ticketmaster with early access sales beginning May 15. A full list of tour dates and information can be found at Drake's website.
