The highly esteemed rap pair of Grammy-nominated artist Phonte Coleman and lyrical artisan Rapper Big Pooh has officially revealed 'Curtain Call:' The Final Tour, signifying the final moments of their influential journey.
Kicking off May 24 at the Artscape Festival in Baltimore and concluding Oct. 31 aboard the Rock the Bells Cruise, this farewell tour is not just another series of performances; it's a love letter to the fans and a celebration of the legacy they have built together. With stops in Boston, Brooklyn, Washington D.C., Philly, Atlanta, Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles, and a moment in Raleigh, North Carolina, their home turf, the duo is making sure this farewell tour is as much about what's new as it is a reunion with family.
But before the speculation starts, Pooh said during a recent interview that there's no beef, no animosity, just mutual respect and awareness.
"I wanted people to know, me and Phonte, we super good," he said. "We had an opportunity to reunite, come back and, I think, put Little Brother to rest the right way."
For artists like Phonte and Pooh, who've always placed substance over spectacle, this final tour is not about hype but paying tribute to what they built. From their incendiary early days inflaming up minds with The Listening to evolving into one of hip-hop's most demurely impactful pairs, Little Brother has always placed the music and the message at the center.
There is something poetic about concluding it with a tour titled 'Curtain Call.' It winks to the theater of it all, but also the grace of knowing when to bow out. For fans, this is a rare chance to hear the classics performed live and participate in a closing chapter that the group is writing for itself.
"It was still important to do that moment and let our fans feel that moment as well," Pooh added. That sentiment is a loud one. It's not just a farewell, a thank you, a toast, an exhalation shared between artists and the community that has grown up around them.
Whether you've been rocking with them since day one or found them through the long echoes of hip-hop heads on the underground raving about their catalog, 'Curtain Call:' The Final Tour is a call to action: show up, sing along, and say goodbye.
It's never easy to watch your favorite group say goodbye, but it's Little Brother if anyone knows how to do it with dignity and soul. And with that final bow, their impact echoes will sound long after the last note drops.
