After becoming the first rapper to openly take paternity leave, Chance The Rapper has announced the rescheduled dates for his "The Big Day Tour." Now named "The Big Tour," it will kick off at the end of the month and will feature guests Lil Yachty and Taylor Bennett.
Earlier this month, Chance and his wife, Kirsten Bennett, welcomed their second daughter into the world. Shortly after the birth of Marli Grace Bennett, Chance took to Instagram where he announced that he would be postponing his tour to help take care of his growing family.
"I need to be as helpful and available as possible to my wife in these early months of raising Kensli and Marli," Chance captioned a picture of himself holding his two daughters. "I apologize because I know how many people were counting on seeing me soon, but I hope you’ll understand and forgive me in time."
Originally, the tour was supposed to be pushed back until the start of 2020. Yet, the new, modified schedule shows that Chance will hit the stage in his hometown of Chicago on Sept. 28. He'll then take a few weeks off before doing his set at the Miami Beach Pop Festival. After that performance, there's another break before things kick into high gear in January. The slow start to "The Big Tour" will give the Bennetts the much-needed time to ease into being a family of four.
