GRAMMY-nominated, RIAA-certified artist Bas has announced his 2024 North America tour in support of his newly released fourth album We Only Talk About Real Shit When We’re Fucked Up. Kicking off March 3 at House of Blues in Dallas the 23-city tour produced by Live Nation will make stops in Los Angeles, Toronto, Atlanta and more before wrapping up in New York at Irving Plaza on April 9.
Produced by Boi-1da, T-Minus, J.Cole among others Bas’s fourth album We Only Talk About Real Shit When We’re Fucked Up was profoundly inspired by his travels having traversed five continents since 2022. Collaborating with an international roster of featured artists, Bas curated a journey to transcend borders, boasting an impressive lineup including J. Cole (NC), Amaarae (Ghana), AJ Tracey (London), FKJ (France), A$AP FERG (NYC), Adekunle Gold (Nigeria), Blxckie (South Africa) and Sha Sha (Zimbabwe) with additional production from Nigerian super producer Kel- P, J Lloyd (Jungle), Lydia Kitto, and more.
We Only Talk About Real Shit When We’re Fucked Up follows a dual narrative for Bas. On one hand, the album sheds light on the societal phenomenon where sensitive topics become conversational only under the influence of substances, as evident in tracks like “Ho Chi Minh.” On the flip side, it also serves as a commentary on society’s tendency to remain indifferent to challenging scenarios until they reach critical junctures, as reflected in tracks like “Khartoum” and “Decent.”
