It's a massive day for fans of Playboi Carti's Opium record label, as the elusive rap star has officially announced a long-awaited joint tour featuring the full roster: Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang, and Apollo Red. For years, fans have been clamoring to see the collective take the stage together, and now, the dream is finally becoming reality.

The Miami stop is scheduled for November 16 at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, marking one of the tour's closing dates. Given Carti's reputation for unpredictable rollouts and high-energy performances, the anticipation for this show is already reaching a fever pitch.

The news comes as somewhat of a shock, considering Carti only recently appeared as an opener for the Weeknd's After Hours Til Dawn tour earlier this month, where he even brought out members of his Opium crew during the second Miami date. That cameo now feels like a warm-up for the full-scale takeover that's about to unfold.

This tour is especially significant because it rarely happens. Over the past few years, Carti's touring plans have been plagued by delays, reschedules, and outright cancellations — leading many fans to assume the idea of an Opium tour was dead in the water.
Even Ken Carson's solo Lord of Chaos tour date at Factory Town in September was quietly scrapped, fueling doubts about when fans would get their fix.

But now, the stars have aligned. With Carti's visionary leadership and the rest of Opium's rising stars, this tour is shaping up to be one of the most explosive rap tours of the year. Known for their "rage rap" style, Carti and his crew have built a rabid fan base online and at festivals, where their chaotic shows often erupt into mosh pits that rival punk concerts.

The synergy between each artist's style — Carti's enigmatic presence, Ken Carson's snarling energy, Destroy Lonely's futuristic flair, Homixide Gang's raw aggression, and Apollo Red's rising-star potential—promises a lineup unlike anything else on the road right now.

For fans who've been waiting through years of rumors and broken announcements, this tour isn't just another set of dates— it's a cultural event. And if Carti's track record is anything to go by, the Opium collective will turn every stop into a full-blown spectacle.

Playboi Carti. With Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang, and Apollo Red. 7 p.m. Sunday, November 16, at Amerant Bank Arena, 1 Panther Parkway, Sunrise; 954-835-8000; amerantbankarena.com.Tickets go on sale on Friday, August 29 via seatgeek.com.
