The Independent Variable has once again returned to the fold. At this point, Lil Dicky has probably reached the height of his stardom, with "Freaky Friday's" celebrity-laden video cementing the Philadelphia emcee as a mainstream commodity. During his brief yet memorable tenure in the rap game, Dicky has evolved from wide-eyed student to self-styled professor. Now, with his sophomore album in the pipes, Dicky has announced his noble intentions to teach the masses.
Alongside an amusing video announcement, Dicky has unveiled plans to undergo a world tour, with stops in American, Canadian, and European cities. Set to kick off in October, the twenty-nine date Life Lessons tour will run until November, with a closing show in London, England. For the majority of the tour, Dicky will be joined by "Freaky Friday" producer Mustard, whose presence is indicated by "*."
