Usher and Chris Brown are officially rewriting the touring history books!
For, the R&B titans have achieved a historic first on Billboard’s Boxscore charts with their blockbuster joint stadium trek, ‘The R&B Tour.’
And with revenues rapidly approaching the $300 million mark, the pair are proving that R&B remains a formidable force on the live music circuit.
Full story below…
According to Billboard, Usher and Breezy have become the first co-headlining act EVER to reach #1 on its monthly Top Tours chart, which launched in 2019.
The duo earned a whopping $77.4 million from 423,000 tickets sold across just 10 September concerts, topping the ranking in both revenue and attendance.
And the bigger picture is even more impressive.
Across its first 36 shows, the mammoth production has grossed an eye-watering $284.7 million and sold over 1.5 million tickets.
That figure already eclipses the entire $183.9 million gross of Usher’s previous ‘Past, Present, Future Tour’ and is closing in on the $295.5 million generated by Chris Brown’s record-breaking ‘Breezy Bowl XX.’
As we reported, demand saw the stadium spectacle expand to 59 announced dates, with star-studded stops featuring the likes of Kanye West and Brandy.
Despite four recent show cancellations, the trek is scheduled to resume in Atlanta on November 5.
With more concerts ahead, Billboard notes that the pair could ultimately cross $400 million and challenge the record for the highest-grossing co-headlining tour in history.
Huge!
