21 Savage is “looking forward to building tour looks” with brands like Celine and Prada.
The “Good Good” wordsmith, born in London but moved to Atlanta when he was seven, celebrated his homecoming performance at the U.K. capital’s 20,000-strong capacity venue, the O2 Arena. He reflected on the sartorial visions and is “grateful” he gets to execute in fashion capitals like Paris.
“Being able to perform is something I am always grateful for. I enjoyed showcasing more fashion looks while I’m on tour,” the rapper told Interview. “I kicked off my tour in Paris at Zenith and wore some looks by brands I like to work with Celine and Prada. I am looking forward to keep building my tour looks with some more amazing designers.”
21 Savage, whose real name is Sheyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, called his return to his birthplace as proof he had come “full circle.”
“Being back in London has brought back so many memories from my childhood; this is my journey coming full circle and how far I have come,” he told the outlet. “To come out on stage to all of these people who have supported me through my career is what motivates me. Coming home was like a celebration for me and my family but the fans, too.”
The “Runnin” rapper insisted it was “great” to have acts like Baby Drill and Lil Harold on the European road with him to warm up the audience.
“It has been great to have Baby Drill and Lil Harold on tour with me to kick the nights off, they always get the crowd ready,” he said.
“This tour has just been nonstop for me, we have been all around Europe at this point,” 21 Savage added. “It’s surreal to recognize how my music resonates across the globe.”
