The Make America Slime Again Tour (abbreviated as MASA Tour) is the ongoing fourth concert tour by American rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again, in support of his eigth studio album, MASA (2025).[1] The tour commenced on September 1, 2025, in Dallas, Texas, and will conclude on November 12, 2025, in Seattle, Washington, consisting of 45 shows.[2] The tour is Gaulden's first in five years since his Still Flexin, Still Steppin Tour in 2020.[3][4][5]
Originally a 27-date-long arena tour,[1] the tour was given new dates on several occasions due to increasingly high demand following its pre-sale, leading to an additional 18 dates being added to the tour: 5 in May,[6] and 13 in June.[7] Gaulden's set includes songs from different eras of his career; despite the tour supporting MASA, few songs are played from the album. The tour's supporting acts are DeeBaby, K3, Lil Dump, NoCap, Offset, and Toosii, with NoCap and Toosii switching for certain dates. Kevin Gates, Mellow Rackz, and OTB Fastlane have appeared as guest performers.[8]Teyana Taylor helped coordinate the creative photography and production direction for the tour.[9]
Background
On September 2, 2022, Gaulden's manager, Alex Junier, confirmed that he would embark on a 30-stop tour upon his release from house arrest with Never Broke Again signee, Quando Rondo.[10] Junier later revealed that Chicago would be the first stop on the tour, seemingly a dig at Chicago-based rapper, Lil Durk who Gaulden was in a publicized feud with, at the time.[11] However, on November 23, Gaulden took to his Instagram to denounce the tour, stating that he turned down a tour deal worth over $15 million: "Every $15 million tour come my way getting turned down. I don’t wanna do another show. I don’t want nothing but a bigger house. It gave me time for myself. My daughter know who I am – I know who I am".[12]
After years of being under house arrest, Gaulden was officially released on probation in April 2025.[13] Upon his release, on May 3, Gaulden released the tracks "Where I Been" and "Shot Callin" before his associate, Kyle "Montana" Claiborne revealed that he's working on an album and a tour.[14] On May 15, Gaulden and his Never Broke Again label announced the tour and its dates in a promotional trailer, revealing that tickets would be up for sale on May 20.[15]
Following the tour's pre-sale on May 15, resulting in several dates completely selling out, an additional five dates were added to the tour.[6] On May 18, EBK Jaaybo, a supporting act on the tour was arrested by Arkansas State Police for felony firearm charges. This resulted in rumors that he had been removed from the tour, which were later deemed false.[16]
On May 29, 2025, Gaulden was granted a presidential pardon by Donald Trump, permitting him to not have to submit to his previous probation restrictions.[17] Days later, on June 2, Gaulden and his team took to Instagram to announce an additional 13 dates due to high demand.[7]
On June 16, Gaulden took to his Instagram to announce that his album would drop on July 4, the day of independence for the United States, seemingly matching the name of his tour, which refers to Make America Great Again.[18]
Ahead of the first date of Gaulden's Make America Slime Again Tour in Dallas, Texas, he donated $50,000 to two non-profit charities, Manifest Freedom and Urban Specialists. Gaulden appeared on WFAA news and said: "You know, a lot of people be getting hurt, so it ain’t really cool at this point to me, [...] I just want to help in any way I can".[19][20][21]
Critical reception
The tour received highly positive reviews from critics, who praised Gaulden's performance.
Reviewing the tour's fourth night in Houston, Texas, DeVaughn Douglas for the Houston Press wrote that "the stage show itself also reflected [Gaulden's] growth" and that "what once was a no-frills display of raw mixtape energy has evolved into a full-scale production", praising the tour's production.[22] He continued, writing that "the show underscored how far YoungBoy has come as a performer" and that Gaulden balences "raw enegry" with "with production designed for arenas".[22]
