Wu-Tang's Raekwon to perform at Dubai this summer
Raekwon will perform at Dubai June 12, it was announced this week.
Rae is touring with "Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang," his fifth album. The album was originally going to be a Wu project, but instead ended up just featuring several members except for U-God and RZA. Nas and Rick Ross are also featured.
Rae last performed in Baltimore in December at Wu-tang's show at Sonar.
Promoters sent the announcement for the latest show Monday night, though the news seems to have been on their Facebook page for over a week.
Dubai has been accumulating a solid roster of headliners lately. Beyond Raekwon, Yo Gotti will perform there May 28 and Young Jeezy is scheduled for June 11.
Tickets for the show are $25 at the door. They can be purchased in advance through Eventbrite.com
