Shabazz Palaces is hitting the road in April for a lengthy world tour. The group will make stops at Primavera Sound and Bonnaroo in addition to a few other festival dates. They will join TV on the Radio and Genius for two dates at the beginning of the trek and open for Flying Lotus for a string of shows overseas, Pitchfork noted. The group is touring in support of its 2014 release Lese Majesty. Rolling Stone gave the album a positive review and Pitchfork ranked it 8.2 out of 10.
"Few rap crews are as far-out as Seattle's Shabazz Palaces, whose 2011 breakthrough LP Black Up cloaked deep verses and sneaky pop sense beneath plenty of weirdness, with beats and rhymes that sounded like they'd been fed through a fish-tank aerator," RS wrote.
