American Rapper Tyga to perform in Mumbai for the maiden time

EE News Desk Nov 20, 2019

Sunburn, Asia’s biggest electronic dance music festival kick-started its 13th Season with Sunburn Arena with legendary multi-platinum superstar, Grammy and Golden Globe nominated recording artist Wiz Khalifa across the cities of Mumbai and Delhi in the month of September 2019 and now fans are in for a massive surprise!

Sunburn is gearing up to host the multi-talented American RIAA certified platinum rapper, singer, songwriter, actor, and television personality, Tyga, who has been making us fall in love with his music for more than a decade. The popular hip hop sensation is set to enthrall fans on 29th November 2019 at Sunburn Arena at MMRDA, BKC, Mumbai. He had performed in New Delhi earlier last year in April for a luxury pop-up marking his India debut. The 30-year-old is expected to perform tracks like ‘AYO’, 'Rack City', 'Still Got It', 'Make It Nasty', ‘Temperature’ at his first ever Mumbai tour.

While he has worked with the likes of Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Rick Ross, Drake, Lil Wayne, Bow Wow; Nicki Minaj and Wiz Khalifa, in recent months, the Grammy nominated artist was targeted by the public eye for his relationship with Kylie Jenner and Blac Chyna. Tyga currently has over 31 hits on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and selling 638K albums, 12.2 million digital songs and 1.4 billion on-demand streams. His RIAA-certified accomplishments include 4x platinum “Rack City,” 2x platinum “Faded,” and five additional gold records. He recently flipped a 90s dance classic on “Ayy Macarena”, rapping over production that heavily samples the track. The song serves as the follow up to "Mamacita" alongside Carlos Santana and YG, and the rapper likely has even more new music on the way after signing a multi-million dollar deal with Columbia Records just last month. Over the summer of this year, Tyga released Legendary, with a deluxe edition featuring songs by Ty Dolla Sign, Takeoff, G-Eazy, and Rich The Kid.

Karan Singh, COO, Percept Live said, “After seeing the phenomenal response we garnered from the Wiz Khalifa Sunburn Arena tour we realized that the demand for the hip hop genre in India is quite awesome but remains largely unexploited. As a brand we believe in catering to the growing appetite of the fans.”

Tyga states, “I had a great experience in New Delhi last year. But I always wanted to tour Mumbai. I’ve heard the hip hop music industry is one to watch out for. I'm really excited to attend the arena concert curated by Sunburn and meet all my fans out there.”

Sunburn Arena is presented by Kingfisher and Magic Moments, and co-powered by Skybags, Fast Track, Toyota, ZEE 5 in association with boAt, SpiceJet, Cred Experience and Jameson.
