Fashawn Touring West Coast With Evidence

10:57 a.m. · January 24, 2011 · by Andrew Martin

As we await the release of Fashawn's Higher Learning 2 mixtape, he has announced his Higher Learning Tour for the months of February and March. He will be joined on every tour date by fellow California native and frequent collaborator Evidence, of Dilated Peoples. For the majority of the bills, relative newcomers Gilbert Forte and Curt@!n$ will serve as the openers while Ugly Duckling join the bill for two nights. I can safely say that you should hit up one of these tour stops if you get the chance as Fashawn puts on one hell of a show. The only problem is you will have to live on the West Coast to do so. Oh well, the year is young.
