Kendrick Lamar’s GNX climbs back onto five U.K. charts as he and SZA bring the Grand National Tour to Europe, with U.K. fans driving a resurgence.

R&B royalty will be coming to Cardiff this week, as together Kendrick Lamar and Sza will bring their hit songs to the Principality Stadium for the first time.

Kendrick Lamar and SZA perform at Villa Park on Thursday as part of their Grand National Tour of 13 European stadiums. Their tour was reported last month to have become the highest-grossing co-headline tour ever, making in excess of $250m on the North American leg alone.

Kendrick Lamar and SZA are set to land at Paris La Défense Arena for the very first time. On Tuesday July 15 and Wednesday July 16, 2025, the rapper and neo-soul singer are set to light up Europe's largest indoor venue for two not-to-be-missed evenings.

The course, titled "Kendrick Lamar and the Morale of M.A.A.D City", will be available to students at a Philadelphia university this Fall. Do any European universities offer students courses on their favourite musicians?

Where Lamar represents the cold and unforgiving concrete jungle, SZA is at home in nature among the caterpillars and praying mantises, which her dancers personified for Garden. She floated back onto stage with wild, kinetic energy and launched into Scorsese Baby Daddy and F2F.

Rap's professor emeritus Rakim responded to Kendrick Lamar name-dropping him on his " Chains & Whips " guest verse from the Clipse ‘s new album Let God Sort Em Out.

Drake has overtaken Kendrick Lamar as the rapper with the most monthly listeners on Spotify.
