Killer Mike has announced he’s going on tour beginning in July — and this time, he’s taking a full gospel choir along for the ride.
The Run The Jewels MC announced on Monday (May 1) that tickets will soon go on sale for his High & Holy Tour, in which he’ll be bringing along a full gospel choir, The Midnight Revival, to play all of the fan-favorite songs from his repertoire.

“Let everyone know GOOD NEWS IS COMING!” he wrote on Instagram. “I’m excited to announce The High & Holy Tour. My choir, The Midnight Revival, and I will perform songs from my new album MICHAEL, as well as classic hits from R.A.P. Music, PLEDGE, and more. Join us for a night of celebration and soulful connection. Let’s have a Revival! Presale begins Wednesday, and general tickets go on sale Friday. See you there!”
Killer Mike’s album MICHEAL will be dropping in its entirety on June 16. The heavily biographical project is set to feature André 3000, Future, Lil Wayne and Young Thug, among others, and will serve as Mike’s first solo effort in over a decade following 2012’s R.A.P. Music.

The High & Holy Tour will come just before the Run The Jewels mini-tour, which kicks off in September 2023 and will celebrate the pair’s tenth anniversary.
On March 28, the rap duo announced they’d be celebrating their 10th anniversary with four different concerts in New York, Chicago, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. According to a press release, the Run The Jewels men will be “performing a different set each night spanning the band’s full discography, bolstered by a plethora of special guests and surprises along the way.”
The tour will kick off with four shows at NYC’s Terminal 5 and from there, the duo will do four shows each in Chicago, Illinois, Atlanta, and Los Angeles.
“It’s mind-blowing to us that it’s been 10 years since we joined forces as RTJ,” Killer Mike and El-P said in a statement. “The best way we can think to celebrate is to get the whole family together and do what we love for the people who love us back. It’s going to be amazing, just like this entire ride has been, and we are grateful to get a chance to celebrate with our Jewel Runners this year and finally get back into clubs to destroy some stages for you.

“We’re doing four cities, four nights each, and four full albums worth of jams, many we have only performed a small handful of times during our whole existence. So on night one, it’s RTJ1 in full, plus many more songs from the other records; night two it’s RTJ2… etc. etc. We can’t wait to get out there and see you.”
