Independent powerhouse Kota the Friend is gearing up to hit 16 cities across the country with his highly anticipated “No Rap on Sunday” U.S. Tour, bringing a fresh kind of connection and energy to fans nationwide.
Tickets are available now at KotaTheFriend.com/Tour.
A Movement, Not Just a Concert
Launching September 3 in Seattle and closing October 5 in Brooklyn, Kota’s tour promises more than a typical live show. Each night will reflect the spirit of his latest project, No Rap on Sunday—a call to slow down, be present, and connect on a real level.
“This tour is about connection,” said Kota the Friend. “It’s about slowing down, being present, and talking about real life with real people. This isn’t just about performing songs—it’s about building a moment together in every city.”
Bringing Fans Even Closer
Fans who purchased the No Rap on Sunday album through EVEN and secured a General Admission or VIP ticket will receive a free upgrade to an intimate fan experience—no additional cost, no corporate gimmicks.
“I hate the term ‘Meet & Greet’ because this is going to be way more than that,” Kota said. “We’re talking about life, growth, dreams—this is like a No Rap on Sunday Therapy Session with me and the people who really ride with the music.”
FLTBYS and the Rise of Independent Culture
The tour will also showcase Kota’s brand, FLTBYS (Flight Boys), offering limited-edition drops, pop-up collaborations, and a behind-the-scenes look at what real independent success looks like.
“FLTBYS isn’t just a brand—it’s a movement,” said Kota. “This tour is a way for us to show the world that independent culture is alive and thriving. We’re bringing good music, good energy, and good people into every room.”
Joining Kota on stage is longtime collaborator Hello O’Shay, adding his signature soulful touch to the experience.
