Wale told Rap-Up at the VMA red carpet that it would be him and Lupe Fiasco opening for Mr. Carter’s Blueprint 3 Tour. From what it looks like now, there has been a change of plan. According to Reuters, the tour will now feature N.E.R.D, Roc Nation’s Wale and J. Cole, and of course, Jay-Z. If you missed the dates, they’re on the jump. Don’t be mad your city ain’t up there. This is a tour strictly for the cities that don’t usually get stuff like this. Hey, they’re adding more dates very soon. So just keep your fingers crossed. This isn’t something you want to miss!
