While we certainly don’t pretend to be experts on the world of hip-hop around these part, we undoubtedly had to sit up and take notice when two of the biggest names in the genre decided to not only team up to put out an album, but to also hit the road together. On August 8, the dynamic duo of Jay-Z and Kanye West, will release their long in the works debut album Watch The Throne. The pair, who have dubbed themselves The Throne, have lined up a 24-date fall tour, that kicks off on September 22 at the Palace Of Auburn Hills and includes notable two-night stands at the Izod Center (East Rutherford, NJ), United Center (Chicago, IL) and the Staples Center (Los Angeles, CA).

If you’re not into a night with the two titans of hip-hop, then maybe you’ll be interested in hitting one of these recently announced tours…
