Multi-Platinum superstar Don Toliver announces his biggest headline tour to date, with special guest Teezo Touchdown and opening act Monaleo. Produced by Live Nation, the “PSYCHO Tour” gets underway October 10 at Portland, OR’s Veterans Memorial Coliseum and then hits arenas across North America through late November, including a stop at Little Caesars Arena on Friday, November 15 at 7:30 p.m.
The “PSYCHO Tour” marks the hugely successful arrival of Toliver’s blockbuster new album, Hardstone Psycho, available now via Cactus Jack/Atlantic Records HERE. Hailed by CLASH as “a bona fide event… underlining (Toliver’s) position in the upper echelons of the new rap generation,” Hardstone Psycho proved the week’s #1 debut upon its release last month, landing immediately at #1 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums in its first week. The long-awaited album entered the Billboard 200 at #3 with sales in excess of 76.6K – marking Toliver’s biggest sales week thus far and his fourth consecutive top 10 release of his career. Hardstone Psycho – which immediately hit #1 on Apple Music’s US charts upon release – includes high profile features from Travis Scott, Future & Metro Boomin, and Teezo Touchdown, alongside such recently released singles as “Brother Stone (Feat. Kodak Black),” “Attitude (Ft. Charlie Wilson & Cash Cobain),” “Deep In The Water,” and “Bandit,” all of which reached the top 40 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and are joined by cinematic music videos currently boasting over 20M combined views at the official Don Tolliver YouTube channel HERE.
In addition, a spectacular short film for Hardstone Psycho is streaming now via YouTube HERE. Directed by frequent collaborator Jack Dalton, starring Toliver and guest appearance by Kali Uchis, the 10-minute visual expands the album’s biker gang universe by offering an in-depth look at the album’s “Psycho Valley” setting.
“Bandit” – which features a sample from Tame Impala’s “One More Hour“ – recently made history as Toliver’s first top 10 hit as a lead artist on Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart while also making a top 40 debut on Billboard’s Hot 100 alongside critical acclaim from The FADER, Stereogum, REVOLT, and more. In addition, Tolliver and his crew recently performed “Bandit” on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, streaming HERE.
A longtime gaming enthusiast, Toliver further heralded Hardstone Psycho with the launch of Hardstone, a groundbreaking new video game in Fortnite. A new take on the fan-favorite game mode Hardpoint, the first-of-its-kind music and gaming experience gives players a chance to actively engage with songs from the album while immersing themselves in the universe that inspired it. Hardstone players will squad up in teams of eight and battle to capture key map locations inspired by the album, fighting for control of Psycho Valley in a heated turf war between two rival biker gangs (Hardstone and Wolves M.C.). Hardstone is free to play and available by logging onto Fortnite and searching for Hardstone from the main menu. An official Hardstone trailer is streaming now HERE.
Praised by NPR as “an album fixated on the textural component of modern rap verse and the push to invent a post-rap vision that functions as atmosphere first and foremost,” Hardstone Psycho marks Toliver’s fourth studio album, following 2020’s RIAA Platinum certified debut, Heaven or Hell, 2021’s Life of a Don, and 2023’s Love Sick, all of which made top 10 debuts on the Billboard 200 upon release along with top 5 debuts on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and Top Rap Albums charts.
Love Sick – which is available now in an Expanded Deluxe Edition HERE – includes such hit singles as “Private Landing (Feat. Justin Bieber & Future),” “Leave The Club (Feat. Lil Durk & GloRilla),“ “4 Me (Feat. Kali Uchis),“ and “Slow Motion (Feat. WizKid).” The album arrived alongside the self-written short film, Love Sick, which proved among the year’s most celebrated visuals including three prestigious Telly Awards honoring excellence in video and television across all screens. The video drew top trophies in a trio of “Branded Content” categories, including two Gold Telly Awards: Craft (for Directing and Videography/Cinematography) and a Bronze Telly Award: General (for Music). Further accolades include a prestigious “Best Music Video Film” award at Hollywood’s 5th Annual HollyShorts Film Festival devoted to showcasing the best and brightest short films from around the globe. Presented by Rotation (the hip-hop and R&B brand from Amazon Music), directed by award-winning French filmmaker Alexandre Moors (Kendrick Lamar, Juice WRLD, Miley Cyrus), and produced by Good Company (Lemonade, Pharrell Williams, Adele), Love Sick is streaming exclusively on Prime Video HERE.
