Now, it’s been revealed that the tour has become the highest-grossing solo rap tour in history, grossing $250million (£189million) and selling more than 2.2million tickets in over 20 countries, per Rolling Stone.

Scott kicked off with shows in North America before heading to Europe, Latin America, and Oceania throughout 2024. After headlining Coachella and Reading and Leeds Festival this year, he then headed to China, South Korea, India, and the United Arab Emirates.

His shows in India also made history, marking the largest rap concerts ever in the country, with 125,000 attendees.

A source close to Scott reportedly told Rolling Stone that the tour “marks the close of a historic chapter.”

“What comes next is being built at a scale far beyond the expectations typically placed on a ‘rap artist.’ He’s moving into a tier with virtually no competition,” the source added.

During his show in Japan earlier this month, Scott brought out Kanye West as a surprise guest to perform some of his biggest hits, including ‘Can’t Tell Me Nothing’, ‘Stronger’ and ‘All Of The Lights’.

NME gave Scott’s headline Reading Festival set a glowing five-star review, which read: “In the end, it’s almost impossible to choose a standout moment from this hour of inspired malevolence, an unhinged spectacle that feels genuinely transgressive for its scale, ambition and frisson of chaos. Scott’s is easily the wildest crowd of the weekend, the riptide only letting up for the beautiful ballad section of ‘MY EYES’ (one of his “favourite songs” from latest album ‘Utopia’) and the audio clip of Donda West, Kanye’s late mum, that precedes a blast of the disgraced rapper’s ‘Praise God’.

“The inclusion of that last track is obviously bleak, but it’s steamrollered by the enormity of the sense of occasion. As fireworks pulse out from the stage, which Scott has now departed, the video screens fizz with blue static, like a thrilling, terrifying electrical storm that’s finally petering out. It’s hard to imagine anyone feeling short-changed by this apocalyptic show.”
