This spring, NE-YO and Akon are joining forces for a concert filled with their biggest club hits and popular songs from the 2000s.
NE-YO and Akon are hitting the road together on their new ‘Nights Like This‘ world tour! Fans can expect to hear all their biggest hits, including NE-YO’s ‘So Sick’ and ‘Closer,’ as well as Akon’s ‘Smack That’ and ‘Lonely’.
I’m so excited! This tour is massive – they’re playing 57 cities! And thankfully, they’re coming to the UK and Ireland, with shows planned for places like London’s O2 and the CO-OP Arena in Manchester. I can’t wait to see them!
Attendees will enjoy both classic songs that shaped the artists’ careers and recent favorites, including tracks from NE-YO’s new album, Explanatory.
