Sexyy Red Addresses Rumors Of Low Ticket Sales On Her Upcoming Tour
On June 25, the rapper took to Instagram and X to announce her upcoming tour, ‘Sexyy Red 4 President.’ Red’s “campaign tour” consists of at least 23 tour stops throughout the country. Additionally, the tour is set to kick off in late August and conclude in early October.
Red will also be joined by fellow artists Hunxho, Loe Shimmy, BlakeIANA, and a “surprise special guest.”
On July 3, an account on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the username @touringdata shared statistics about Red’s upcoming tour.
The account, which has over 70,000 followers, alleged that over 85,000 tickets remained unsold for Red’s tour. Additionally, the account alleged the tour had only sold 37.11% of tickets.
“SEXYY RED 4 PRESIDENT, @SexyyRed314_ 85,217 Tickets Available (North America) 37.11% Percentage Sold (20/24 shows) 6.8K Estimated Average Capacity 06/28/2024 General Sales Date,” the account tweeted while tagging the rapper.

At that point, Red responded to the tweet to shut down the speculation that her tour would be canceled.
“My fans are buying tickets we’re doin just fine we not cancelling no tour dis cancelling sht all cap…” she wrote.
Furthermore, the rapper alleged that since she used an “independent promoter,” “bigger companies” were trying to “sabotage” her.
