Bryson Tiller Enlists SZA for European Leg of ‘Set it Off Tour’

Two of R&B’s hottest acts have just joined forces. That’s right: Bryson Tiller has enlisted SZA for the European leg of  his Set It Off Tour. The dates are set for this fall beginning October 17 in Marseilles, France and ending in Dublin, Ireland on Nov. 30.

This announcement couldn’t have come at a more appropriate time for both artists. Tiller, whose sophomore album True to Self debuted at No. 1 last month, just finished the U.S. run of the tour with special guests H.E.R. and Metro Boomin. SZA has also been keeping busy with the release of her No. 3 peaking debut album Ctrl and the announcement of her own headlining tour last week.

SZA is only one of special guests that will be featured on Tiller’s tour, with the others TBA. Tickets go on sale this Friday, July 14.

Mario Releases New Single ‘Pain is the New Pleasure’

After changing the title of  his upcoming album to Cosmo 17, Mario returns with a brand new single called “Pain is the New Pleasure.”

The Pham-produced song touches on some of Mario’s personal experiences including his relationship with his mother who passed away earlier this month. Although “Pain is the New Pleasure” was completed before her passing, Mario’s mother never had the chance to hear the song.

“The song deals with my thoughts and feelings towards self-sabotage, self-love and the experience in relation to the material world we live in,” he told Billboard. “The song is really about finding true happiness and I feel like that’s something that can only come from within. The record represents finding that space where you choose to finally love yourself and choose to make better decisions.”

Mario’s new album, Cosmo 17, is scheduled to arrive this fall.
