Pitbull Brings the Party Back to North America with Lil Jon on ‘I’m Back’ Tour

pitbullPitbull is heading back out on the road across North America with a new tour fittingly titled I’m Back, and he’s bringing Lil Jon along for the ride. The run marks one of his biggest regional outings yet, leaning fully into the high-energy, crowd-first approach that’s defined his live shows for years.

The tour kicks off May 14 in West Palm Beach, Florida, and stretches through the summer, hitting major amphitheaters and stadiums across the U.S. and Canada before wrapping up in late September. Stops include venues like the Hollywood Bowl, Hersheypark Stadium, and Jones Beach, among others.

Pitbull’s live reputation has been built on consistency and scale, his tours regularly rank among the highest-grossing, and his last run, Party After Dark, was the biggest solo tour of his career. Adding Lil Jon to the lineup signals a clear direction for this tour: loud, familiar, and unapologetically built for mass participation.

The North American dates follow a large Europe and UK leg, continuing a touring strategy that keeps Pitbull firmly in the global live circuit nearly two decades into his career.

Galactic Empire Unleash New Album ‘Cinemetal’ via Pure Noise Records

galactic-empire cinemetalGalactic Empire, the galaxy’s favorite Star Wars–inspired metal band, have released their fourth studio album, Cinemetal, now out via Pure Noise Records. The record finds the masked metal outfit traveling beyond their usual saga, reimagining iconic themes from Harry Potter, Back to the Future, The Lord of the Rings, Batman, Avengers and more.

Produced by Grant McFarland and Carson Slovak at Atrium Audio, Cinemetal marks the group’s most ambitious and densely layered effort yet. “After three albums of tribute to the mighty Sith Lord John Williams, we realized we had run out of Star Wars music,” said frontman Lord Sihk. “It felt prudent to pay homage to other legendary film scores. Behold the ultimate power of the Dark Side with Cinemetal!”

The band will tour the U.S. on headline dates and join Bit Brigade later this year, before setting sail with Coheed and Cambria on the S.S. Neverender cruise to Cozumel, Mexico in November. Full dates and details at galacticempireband.com
