New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Canadian Hip Hop duo 88GLAM announce their first headlining Canadian Tour today. Following the release of their second album titled 88GLAM2 the duo will kick off their headlining tour in Ontario on January 11th. 88GLAM will make a total of thirteen stops across the country wrapping the tour back in Ontario on the 31st of January. Full tour dates listed below.
88GLAM, comprised of Derek Wise and 88 Camino, signed with XO records (The Weeknd, Belly, NAV) earlier this year. Upon signing 88GLAM re-released their self-titled album 88GLAM: Reloaded. 88GLAM: Reloaded expanded the original track listing with three brand new songs, including "Celebrity Crush," "On Sight," and "Twin Turbo." Additional standout tracks included the hit "Bali" with a surprise feature from NAV and 2Chainz and the Billboard-premiered "12" whose music video features a cameo from The Weeknd. Additionally, it boasts production from Murda Beatz, WondaGurl, AlexOnWeed, and VillaBeatz.
Never ones to slow down, the duo released their second full length album - the playful yet poignant, 88GLAM2, in November of this year. The album debuted at #6 on the iTunes' hip hop chart, #8 on iTunes' all genre chart, and was featured in the top five on Spotify Canada's New
Music Friday playlist. 88GLAM2 sees 88GLAM taking their experimentation to new heights. "We're just making music that we like," Derek says with sincerity. "We're not out to make radio hits, but just quality songs." Camino seals the mission: "We want people to just listen and say, 'This is fuckin' sick.'"
