“Kendrick & SZA: The Cosmic Duo That Just Outshined Every Hip-Hop Gig Ever – What’s Their Star Sign, Anyway?”

Added on April 25, 2025 inEntertainment News Cards

In a world where the stars not only twinkle but also set the stage for our grandest moments, the “Grand National” tour hits all the right notes, doesn’t it? Picture this: Kendrick Lamar, SZA, and Mustard, each bringing their own flavor of West Coast magic, kick-starting an adventure that’s both a lyrical odyssey and a astronomical spectacle. As the spring equinox usheered in new energy, Wynx (Mercury) was vibing in its own sign Taurus, which meant the tour was destined for some stability, right? Well, let’s just say Tanus Taurus never predicted the chart-topping, record-breaking blowout that followed.

So, what’s with Kendrick Lamar and his knack for turning concerts not just into performances but life-changing events? Here we are, with the “Grand National” tour, featuring him alongside former TDE labelmate, SZA, and the beat master himself, Mustard. Now, think about this: we’ve got a lineup that’s practically wrote into the cosmos. Events that captivate fans with unexpected pop-ups and gathers 40,000-plus exuberant devotees in one space. Oh, and did I mention they made history? On Venus of all days!

That’s right, folks, in, they broke records so high, even Jtor (Jupiter) in Aries is nodding in approval the bravery to attempt. With spirits high and the bass even higher, the tour seems to be driving on a road paved with gold—or in this case, chart-topping hits and a staggering.$9.44 million. I mean, Taurus’ ruler, Venus, has its work cut out, trying to keep up with this level financial gravity. But who am I to question the cosmic currents of success?

What’s next for Lamar and his starry-eyed tour? Will there be more surprises hidden like an astrological retrograde you never expected? Only time, and perhaps another alignment of the planets, will tell. But one thing’s for sure, these musicians are not just making music; they’re creating moments that resonate through the cosmos, both in the charts and in our hearts. Stay tuned, because if I know anything, it’s that this tour is set to continue its astral ascendancy.klahoma?

The “Grand National” tour from Kendrick Lamar, his former TDE partner SZA, and star West Coast producer Mustard has brought a lot of opportunities for fan engagement. Whether that’s a Not Beauty pop-up or a crowd of over 40,000 fans, this trek kicked off on a great note.

As caught by NFR Podcast and others on Twitter, their concert in Houston on Wednesday (April 23) reportedly became the highest-grossing hip-hop show in history. It reportedly garnered $9.44 million. Their “Grand National” opening in Minneapolis just last week was the previous record holder according to Touring Data, becoming the first rap show to gross over $9 million. Before that, Eminem held the record, which he set at a 2019 concert in Melbourne.

Kendrick Lamar & SZA “luther”

This is a staggering achievement for a tour with only two shows under its belt at press time. The Minneapolis show opened the “Grand National” trek in… well, grand fashion. New Kendrick Lamar verses and plenty of other surprises emerged, along with consistently impressive showings from SZA and Mustard’s crowd control.

Of course, Kendrick Lamar added more shots for good measure. Some fans are already tired of all the Drake discourse, but both artists seem happy to keep things going. One is on the road and one is in court. But we’ve seen how this fueled standout recent moments like the PARTYNEXTDOOR collab album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U and pretty much everything K.Dot touches these days. Even if they aren’t direct in their allusions and jabs, they know fans are smart enough to connect the dots. Or just, you know, ignore them and move on with their lives if they don’t care.

Nevertheless, there are many more narrative offshoots from the “Grand National” tour’s context that are much more positive. For example, one is Kendrick Lamar and SZA dominating Billboard with “luther.” Their Minneapolis show matched with their ninth consecutive and total week at the number one spot on the Hot 100 chart.

What else will the “Grand National” tour offer? We have no idea, but whether there is consistency or surprise on the horizon, we can’t wait to find out. We know at least one thing that will definitely come of this trek, and that’s a whole lot of cash.
