Kanye West has announced his next North American tour, which begins on August 25th.

The Saint Pablo tour covers 40 cities across the states — including New York City, Cleveland, Los Angeles and Toronto — marking the Chicago rapper-turned-producer-turned-fashion designers first major tour in nearly three years.

General ticket sales begin on June 18th on LiveNation.com and you cop them early through American Express on June 14th or through Tidal on June 14th.

Thankfully, West added two dates in New York City, and this may be his way of making up his failed attempt to throw a massive impromptu show at a 1,500 person venue.

Back in May, the man himself said that the tour would be as inspiring as Star Wars.

“My tour game is strong. My tour game is unprecedented,” West told The Steve Harvey Morning Show. “We’re gonna go out in September, I believe. We’re working on some of the ideas right now. I’m trying to literally inspire these kids the way Disney inspired me, the way, you know, when I saw the original Star Wars."
