Peso Pluma at Mohegan Sun Arena

Peso Pluma

One of Billboard's Latin Artists on the rise, Peso Pluma (or the Double P) is heading out on his debut North American tour this summer, bringing his brand of reinvigorated, tuba-laden Mexican corridos to you, stating "I am looking forward to connecting with my fans in every city and getting to experience every moment of this with them."

Lupe Fiasco at Webster Theater

Lupe Fiasco

An accompaniment to his 2017 release "Drogas Light," this latest album is a fantasy tale about a group of slaves who survive a shipwreck and dedicate their lives to rescuing and releasing other slaves from their bondage. Fans can expect to hear songs from across his catalog.

Pitbull at Xfinity Theatre

Pitbull

Even if you're not a fan of club culture or have suffered from a case of agoraphobia for the last decade, chances are still extremely high that you've danced, tapped your foot or sang along to a Pitbull song. The Miami MC has dominated the airwaves ever since the release of his debut album M.I.A.M.I in 2011. Now catch this captain of club anthems LIVE on stage!

Post Malone at Xfinity Theatre

Post Malone

Feel just like a 'rockstar' with Post Malone! Straddling the pop and hip-hop worlds, the quirky rapper-songwriter Post Malone turned heads and ears in 2015 when he dropped the basketball metaphor-laden banger "White Iverson." Now, the artist has topped the charts and become one of the most talked-about names in hip-hop. In 2024, Post is dropping his upcoming album 'F-1 Trillion,' set to release this August and celebrating with a brand new tour this fall!
