After the first official Bad Boy Reunion show in Brooklyn sold out in seven minutes, Puff Daddy
added a second date, but even that wasn’t enough supply to meet the
crazy high demand that’s been built. So, ever a man of the people, Puff
will take his label/family reunion on the road for a 25-city tour this
summer.
Fans will be able to catch Puff and his extended family, which will
include, Ma$e, Faith Evans, Carl Thomas, L.O.X., Lil’ Kim, 112, French
Montana and more. While the tour will start later in the summer and
extend into the fall, the original reunion dates are scheduled for this
upcoming weekend (May 20 and 21), so those interested in or enthusiastic
about the show will get to see what’s in store, which very well could
include a hologram of The Notorious B.I.G. The shows are scheduled
around the late rapper’s 44th birthday, and in an interview with Dame
Dash, Big’s widow Faith Evans mentioned that she was in talks to make
the 3D vision a reality.
Catch the full list of dates below, with Puff saying in a
statement, “This isn’t just a concert– this is a moment in hip hop and
R&B history. The family and I are so excited to welcome fans into
this once in a lifetime experience. This tour is 20 years in the making,
and is a celebration of the hits and the Bad Boy lifestyle. The Bad Boy
Family has set the standard for concert excellence, and this tour will
be a testament to that!”
