Mustard Joins Kendrick Lamar and SZA On Tour

On Tuesday (April 1), acclaimed producer and DJ Mustard announced he will officially join Lamar and SZA on their highly anticipated Grand National Tour as the opening act. The Los Angeles native will set the tone each night with a high-energy DJ set.

“I’m joining Kendrick Lamar and SZA on the Grand National Tour,” Mustard shared via Instagram, confirming the news with fans. To celebrate the announcement, the tour has released an additional batch of coveted floor seats, with exclusive early access granted to Cash App Card holders. Tickets go on sale Wednesday at 10 a.m. local time.

The North American stadium tour is set to launch on Saturday, April 19, in Minneapolis, making stops in major cities including Philadelphia, Houston, Atlanta, Seattle, San Francisco, Detroit, Chicago, and Toronto, before concluding in Washington, D.C., on June 18. The tour marks one of the most ambitious live runs of the year, blending star power, cultural resonance, and sonic innovation.

Mustard and Kendrick’s Partnership

Thus, Mustard’s inclusion on the tour is no surprise following his standout appearance during Lamar’s halftime performance of “TV Off” at the Super Bowl earlier this year. The two artists have developed a powerful creative partnership in recent years. The most notable appearance was on Lamar’s Grammy-winning single “Not Like Us”—a scathing response to Drake that took home both Record of the Year and Song of the Year at the 2025 GRAMMYs.

Additionally, Mustard played a key role in shaping the sound of Lamar’s GNX era, contributing to fan favorites such as “TV Off” and “Hey Now.” His presence on the tour underscores his evolution from hit-making producer to live performance mainstay—bringing a fresh dimension to what is already poised to be one of the most culturally significant tours of the year.

For fans of Lamar, SZA, and Mustard alike, the Grand National Tour promises more than just a concert—it’s shaping up to be a moment.
