Adult Swim Presents Ghostface Killah Featuring Witchdoctor National College Tour
Adult Swim and Helio Team Up for Free Shows Across the Collegiate
Adult Swim, Cartoon Network’s highly rated late-night programming block for young adults, announced today a 12-stop college tour beginning October 1 with Ghosface Killah and Witchdoctor. Ticket information can be obtained online at www.adultswimpresents.com.
This marks Adult Swim Presents’, a series of live entertainment performances, premiere event. Adding fuel to the fire, the college tour comes just in time to support the release of Witchdoctor’s new album, The Diary of an American Witchdoctor, due out on October 23, courtesy of Adult Swim’s Williams Street record label.
Headlining the tour will be the musical styling of Def Jam’s Ghostface Killah. Perhaps best know for his contributions to the Wu-Tang Clan, Ghostface Killah has continued on with his solo career while releasing six influential hip-hop records. Warming up the crowd will be Atlanta’s own Witchdoctor. Coming from the Dungeon Family collective with artists like OutKast, Organized Noize and Killer Mike, Witchdoctor has made a name for himself by standing out with his spiritual lyrics while blending soul, rap, and rhythm and blues.
“Williams Street records and Adult Swim have really opened doors for me to communicate directly with my fans,” said Erin Johnson also known as Witchdoctor. “This is the kind of tour every artist out there wants to be a part of and I’m one of the select few to be able to offer free shows to my fans in this incredible setting.”
