THE PUNCHLINE ACADEMY ANNOUNCES NEXT LEG OF NATIONWIDE TOUR
The Lyric League Series Hits the Road Again
The Punchline Academy is hitting the road again with another major run of dates, bringing the Lyric League Series to new cities while continuing one of its biggest years yet.
Led by Da Inphamus Amadeuz, the fall run kicks off September 26 at the Hudson River Hip Hop Festival in Newburgh, New York, before heading to Philadelphia on October 1 and Cincinnati on October 2. The tour then heads to Detroit for October 4 and October 5, with additional stops including Louisville, Kentucky and Green Bay, Wisconsin.
The Lyric League Series has become one of The Punchline Academy’s signature properties by taking the radio directly into communities and putting the focus back on raw lyricism. The series has surpassed 50 million social views, while The Punchline Academy as a whole has crossed 100 million views across platforms. (The Punchline Academy)
The Punchline Academy x Red Bull
One of the biggest highlights of the upcoming run happens Monday, October 5, when The Punchline Academy connects with Red Bull in Detroit for a special Lyric League Series cypher.
The collaboration marks another major moment for a series that has already traveled across the country, spotlighting established names alongside hungry local MCs.
Lesson 2 Is Coming
The tour also leads directly into the release of The Punchline Playbook: Lesson 2 on Friday, October 23.
The upcoming Punchline Academy album continues the formula established with Lesson 1: respected lyricists, gritty production and an emphasis on bars. The new project features appearances from Ras Kass, E.D.I. Mean, G. Dep, Copywrite and more.
The rollout is already underway with Da Inphamus Amadeuz’s new single “Posted On The Block” featuring Shortee Sha and Sos Bishop. (Dain Pham Usama Deuz)
Between Shade 45, nationwide cyphers, original music, interviews and live events, The Punchline Academy continues expanding far beyond the radio studio.
New cities. New spitters. New album. Same mission: keep real hip hop moving forward.
