Cardi B Closes ‘Little Miss Drama Tour’ With Missy Elliott Surprise and $70 Million Gross
Cardi B brought the ‘Little Miss Drama Tour‘ to a close Saturday night at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, ending a 35-date run that grossed over $70 million and sold more than 453,000 tickets. Live Nation presented her with two plaques to mark the achievement, which stands as the highest-grossing and most-attended tour leg in history for a female rapper.
Earlier in the day, Cardi told fans on her Instagram Channel that closing night felt like the last day of school. “Happy for the summer but going to miss my friends,” she said. The mood shifted shortly after. As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Cardi went live from inside the arena saying she would not perform after a dispute with arena employees. She took to X before showtime to signal the situation had resolved. “When you hold power and authority, use it with kindness and respect. Never abuse it… because not everyone will endure your arrogance in silence. Treat others exactly like you demand to be treated. Atlanta… I’ll see you soon,” she wrote.

Shamar opened the show with “Clock Dat” before Cardi took the stage, and Missy Elliott came out as the surprise guest performer during the set. Cardi addressed the earlier dispute directly from the stage. “Next time, b****, I’m having my concert in the parking lot. I’m tired of y’all playing with me. This your f****** second time. I still f*** with the Atlanta Hawks though.”
Cardi presented Missy with the Vanguard Award at the 2019 MTV VMAs and sampled her 1996 track “She’s a Bitch” on her March 2024 single “Like What.” Usher was also present, with Cardi thanking him for the use of his tour photographer Kevin Wong. Usher’s wife Jennifer Goicoechea, Senior Vice President of A&R at Epic Records, was also in attendance.
Cardi took an emotional final bow on her first arena tour, behind a comeback seven years in the making. She gave birth to her fourth child in November 2024, and there were doubts the tour would happen at all. It did, and it made history.

Mariah the Scientist Addresses Viral Dallas Concert Video
Mariah the Scientist is responding to a viral video from her Dallas stop on the ‘Hearts Sold Separately tour.’ The clip, which spread widely on social media, shows the singer addressing the crowd during “Is It a Crime?” the second to last song on her setlist, as some attendees began leaving the venue. “To everybody walking out on me, I love you anyway. Thank you,” she told the crowd.
Many viewers took the moment as a slight against her audience, and Mariah pushed back in the comments, offering context the clip left out. “Please stop lying on me. This is literally the last song on my set, the entire show had concluded at this point. Of course it’s time to go, I was letting them know as they were leaving that I appreciate them and thank them for helping sell the place out,” she wrote. In a second comment, she explained that she intentionally lingers for the front row. “I usually take extra time with the people standing in front because they literally come as early as 8am and stand in lines wrapped around the building,” she wrote. “If u listen closely, the ending instrumental to Burning Blue is being played, and this is the part where I sign autographs before I leave off the stage. Why lie and twist it?”
The Dallas show was part of the North American leg of her 36-date Hearts Sold Separately tour, which kicked off January 12 in Paris and wrapped April 10 in her hometown of Atlanta. As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Mariah will next join Kali Uchis on the ‘For the Girls Tour’ as a special guest, a run that kicks off May 23 in Chicago and closes August 8 in Las Vegas.

Chris Brown and Usher Announce Joint R&B Tour
Chris Brown and Usher are hitting the road together. The two announced a joint stadium tour, billed as the R&B Tour, on Thursday. No tour dates or ticketing details have been released yet.
Brown confirmed the news on Instagram. “ITS TIME! #R&BTOUR #Raymond&Brown,” he wrote. The announcement came the same day Brown revealed his 12th studio album, BROWN, is dropping May 8, three days after his 37th birthday on May 5.
The tour trailer features both artists and carries the title Raymond & Brown, a nod to their real last names. It is not the first time the two have shared a creative space. They teamed up on “New Flame” in 2014, a track from Brown’s X album, and more recently on a remix of “It Depends,” a Bryson Tiller collaboration that peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold within three months of its release. Both the original and the remix won at the 2026 NAACP Image Awards, taking Outstanding Duo, Group or Collaboration (Contemporary) and Outstanding Soul/R&B Song respectively.
Usher most recently wrapped his ‘Past, Present, Future tour,’ a global arena run that launched in 2024. As previously reported by miixtapechiick.com, Brown completed his ‘Breezy Bowl XX‘ stadium run, which moved 2 million tickets and grossed $300 million, making it his most successful solo tour to date.
