Ken Carson is taking XPERIMENT on the road. Just days after releasing his new album, the Atlanta rapper has officially announced the Xperimenting Tour, a North American run that will bring his new music to fans across the United States this fall.
The trek follows the strong streaming debut of XPERIMENT, which opened with one of the biggest first-day Spotify performances for a rap album in 2026.
Supporting the tour will be Xavier Sobased, Prettifun, and DJ Moon, with the lineup accompanying Carson throughout the run. The newly unveiled poster confirms stops in major markets including Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Brooklyn, Washington, D.C., Charlotte, Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, Austin, Irving, Phoenix, and San Diego, before concluding with a performance at ComplexCon.
The Xperimenting Tour begins August 26, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois, before heading to Philadelphia (August 29), Boston (September 1), Brooklyn (September 3), Washington, D.C. (September 5), Charlotte (September 9), Miami (September 11), Orlando (September 12), Atlanta (September 13), Austin (September 15), Irving (September 16), Phoenix (September 19), and San Diego (September 20). The run wraps up at ComplexCon on October 3, 2026.
Presales begin July 8 at 10 a.m. local time, while the general on-sale starts July 10 at 10 a.m. local time.
The announcement arrives after XPERIMENT made an immediate impact on streaming platforms. Released on July 3, the 22-track project generated 15.65 million Spotify streams worldwide during its first day, giving it the sixth-biggest opening-day debut for a rap album in 2026.
Among the strongest performers is “deaf note,” Carson’s collaboration with Playboi Carti, which debuted with more than 1.3 million Spotify streams and reached No. 25 on the US Spotify Chart. The album also features appearances from Lil Uzi Vert, Young Thug, Destroy Lonely, and 2Hollis.
