It looks like two of the tri-state’s hardest rap crews are hitting the road together this Fall. On Monday, Yonkers veterans The LOX, consisting of Jadakiss, Styles P and Sheek Louch, and Buffalo crew Griselda Gang, consisting Conway, Westside Gunn and Benny, have announced the “Key To Life” tour, which will take them across the East Coast and Midwest next month and serve as The Lox second tour this year, following last Spring’s "Filthy America... It's Beautiful" Tour.
With special guests Smoke DZA and Statik Selektah joining them, the 12-city tour will kick off October 8th in Charlotte, North Carolina and run through cities like Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cleveland, Chicago, and Cincinnati before wrapping things up in Buffalo, New York on October 26th. “Additional” special guests are reportedly set to make some appearances in various cities as well, but time will only tell who that’ll actually be.
The announcement comes just days after The Lox appeared on a new single from Statik Selektah called “But You Don’t Hear Me Tho,” which will appear on his forthcoming album 8 (see here).
