This is one for the history books. Chart-topping rapper Kyle will bless Singapore with a performance as part of his first-ever world tour in January 2019. The ever-reliable promoter Collective Minds, which been responsible for booking some of the best shows this year, has made the Californian rapper's presence here possible.

This has been a breakout year for Kyle. He followed through on the hype of his Internet-resounding 2016 single 'iSPY' with a string of high-profile collaborations that culminated in the May 2018 release of his brilliant debut album Light of Mine. The fact that the album is a Gold-selling behemoth is only a footnote to the fact that within its vivid, colouristic folds, Kyle's distinct charms resound. In August 2018, he had a starring role in Netflix's widely acclaimed feature-length comedy film, The After Party.

This will be an undoubtedly uplifting night.

Catch Kyle live in Singapore on Friday, January 4, at the Esplanade Annexe Studio. Ticketing information will be announced shortly.
