Lil Yachty at Paramount Theatre Seattle

Lil Yachty is hitting the road on a global tour. For fans in America, you’ll find his tour span across over 40 cities, including New York, Nashville, San Diego, Las Vegas, Denver, St. Louis, and more.The most exciting part is that he added a show in Seattle, Washington too! Coming this October, you get the chance to see one of the biggest hip hop stars in the game right now on a live performance you’re never going to forget.

Let’s Start Here is an album unlike any of his previous releases. Lil Yachty is going on a different course this time and said “Fck any of the albums I dropped before this one.” The adventurous psychedelic album is far from his mumble rap, and it’s something he’s truly proud of. It features collaborations with Mac DeMarco, Nick Hakim, Alex G and members of MGMT, Unknown Mortal Orchestra and Chairlift. Definitely far from the music he has previously released.

“I did what I really wanted to do, which was create a body of work that reflected me,” he said the day before his listening event. “My idea was for this album to be a journey: Press play and fall into a void.” And it’s true, when you listen to the album, you can barely recognize when a song starts and when it ends. It’s a true gem for people who just want to get lost in the vibes.

He also spoke about the things that occurred when he first entered the rap scene. “I came into music in a time where rap was real hardcore, it was real street,” he says. “And a bunch of us kids came in with colorful hair and dressing different and basically said, ‘Move out the way, old f-cks. We on some other sh-t.’ I was young and I didn’t really give a f-ck, so I did do things that may have led people to the assumptions that I was a mumble rapper or a SoundCloud kid or I don’t appreciate the history of hip-hop. But to be honest, I’ve always been so much more than just hip-hop.”

Lil Yachty is now doing what he loves, and proving to the world that he is unlike any other rapper. Catch the gems off his new album live when he takes the stage at the Paramount Theatre Seattle! This show is going to be crazier live than it is when you’re listening at home, so you better come and see it. Save the date for Tuesday, the 24th of October, 2023!
