Yeat has moved around some of his Canadian tour stops.
The California rapper has pushed back the start of his Love/Lyfe tour to August and subsequently rescheduled two of his Canadian concerts in Montreal and Toronto, originally set to take place at the end of this month (July 21-22). The rapper will now play Toronto's Coca-Cola Coliseum on Sept. 13, followed by Laval's Place Bell on Sept. 14. His stop at Vancouver's PNE Forum on Aug. 11 remains untouched.
"I moved some dates and added some members," he shared on Instagram with an updated tour poster.
Yeat has cemented himself as one of rap's most exciting new voices over the past five years, and he's passing the torch by inviting a number of up-and-coming underground acts onto his new trek. Rising stars PZ' and Zukenee are set to open for the rapper in both Toronto and Laval, with Zukenee also being on opening duty for the Vancouver stop alongside the "Mo Bamba" hitmaker and Cactus Jack Records signee, Sheck Wes. The original tour slate was set to include underground artist Slayr as a supporting act, before he dropped out in late June due to "date complications out of his control."

Zukenee has previously collaborated with Yeat on "Switch It," a high-energy collaboration that appears on his go-to producer BNYX®'s Loading... EP, released last fall. The producer notably reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Producers chart following the release of Drake and Yeat's viral collaboration "IDGAF."
After breaking out with his unique take on the 'rage' sound, filled with melodic vocal inflections and acrobatics, Yeat made his name through several charting albums, including Afterlyfe (2023) and 2093, (2024) which both reached No. 5 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, plus Lyfestyle (2024) which topped the Billboard 200. He's also become close collaborators with Canadian superstar Drake, with the dynamic duo crafting several big hits together. "IDGAF" topped the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 in Oct. 2023, and they earned another joint placement last fall with "Dog House" at No. 86, which features singer-songwriter and the first-ever Billboard Canada Global Rising Star honouree, Julia Wolf.
