His left stroke just went viraaaaaalllll…..

One of the greatest / The greatest (deleted as personally appropriate, but bear in mind that only these two options apply) musical artists of all time will headlining his new tour in Europe next year.

Not only that, but Kendrick will actually be kicking off the European leg of his worldwide DAMN. tour in Dublin.

Talk about getting the party started…

THE DAMN. TOUR [EUROPE]

A post shared by Kendrick Lamar (@kendricklamar) on

There are very few actual details yet, as all we’ve got to go on so far is that he’ll be performing somewhere in Ireland on Wednesday 7 February 2019.

You’ll notice that his next gig isn’t until Friday 9 February in Birmingham, so there’s a good chance that should his first date sell out, a second date in Dublin will suddenly be added on.

Additionally, he’ll be supported by James Blake, who helped produce one of DAMN.’s best tracks, ‘Element’.

Whether or not they’ll be able to perform the track live as well as Jim Bob from South Park remains to be seen…
