About Shyne
Born in Belize and raised in Brooklyn, Shyne broke through at the turn of the millennium on Bad Boy Records with a deep, commanding baritone that drew constant comparisons to the Notorious B.I.G. His self-titled 2000 debut went platinum on the strength of “Bad Boyz,” a single built around a hook from Barrington Levy, and his 2004 follow-up, Godfather Buried Alive, was certified gold.
His second act has been even more unusual. Shyne eventually returned to Belize and moved into politics, winning a seat in the country’s House of Representatives and rising to lead the opposition party, a path few rap stars of his generation could have predicted. The 2622 LGND Tour marks a return to the stage in North America, running from late October into early December.
The lineup is a real piece of history. Having Barrington Levy on the same bill means fans could hear the voice behind “Bad Boyz” in person, while Lil’ Cease brings a direct link to the late-1990s Brooklyn scene that shaped Shyne’s sound. Hip-hop fans across Texas get several chances to catch the tour; for more rap listings around the state, see our page for Chance the Rapper in Houston.
Austin is one of the first stops on the tour, which makes this a good chance to see the show while it is still fresh. Get your tickets on StubHub before it sells out.
Doors typically open an hour before showtime. Expect a busy Friday night downtown, so give yourself extra time for parking, or take a rideshare and get dropped off near the venue on Second Street.
