Ice Cube is hitting the road. The West Coast icon announced the Truth to Power: 4 Decades of Attitude Tour on Tuesday (April 15). The North American trek is his first domestic headlining tour in more than a decade.

The 22-date run kicks off in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center on Sept. 4 and will invade arenas across the country. Cube is hitting cities such as Baltimore, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Vancouver, Cleveland, Chicago, Oakland and wrapping up north of the border in Toronto.


“Truth to Power is more than a tour — it’s a 40-year celebration,” Cube said in a statement. “The world needs truth. The people need power. And that’s what my music brings. It’s gonna be next level to go from city to city with a major production unlike anything I’ve ever done before.”

Pre-sale tickets will start going on sale on Wednesday morning (April 16). Fans should keep an eye on Cube’s social media accounts when it comes to gaining access to pre-sales, while the general public will be able to purchase tickets on Friday morning (April 18) on Cube’s website.

There will be a variety of VIP packages available that will come with meet-and-greet opportunities with Cube, signed vinyls and more.

Ice Cube will be celebrating his decorated discography ranging from the days of running with N.W.A. to his Hall of Fame solo work through his most recent album, Man Down, which arrived in November.

For the first time since 2010, Ice Cube entered Billboard‘s Top Rap Albums chart last year with Man Down‘s debut at No. 8. The set was released through Lench Mob/Hitmaker Music Group and earned 20,000 equivalent album units in the U.S., according to Luminate.

“Most of the people who say hip-hop is a young man’s game don’t do it and ain’t never gripped a mic and ripped it,” Cube told Billboard last year. “I’m not worried about my ACL and my Achilles. This is wordplay, this is wordplay and flow. This is skill and beat selection, concept and hook selection.”
