Atlanta rapper Young Dro will soon be shoulder-leaning around the country, as he plots his first major tour in support of his Atlantic Records debut Best Thang Smokin'.
The colorful rapper is set to hit the road this fall for a major U.S. tour with labelmate T.I.
The arena trek will kick off Oct. 27 in Hampton, Va., and will stop in various major markets, including Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, and St. Louis, with additional dates to be added later.
Fueled by the success of his first single "Shoulder Lean," Young Dro has notched over 1.5 million ringtone sales, and his latest single, "Rubberband Banks," sits atop national playlists as the No. 1 most added track last week.
Best Thang Smokin' topped Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and landed at No. 3 on Billboard's Top 200 albums chart, moving over 104,000 units in its first week of release.
Dro and T.I. recently performed "Shoulder Lean" and "Rubberband Banks" on Showtime at the Apollo for the show that will later this fall.

Reppin: Chicago, IL
Favorite Spot: Mario Tricotci Spa, and the studio
I can't front cause they have the best dro, the best food, and only specific people that I pick can come around. And then we crank out hot joints. That's my favorite place.
Also, The Mario Tricotci Spa in Chicago, for the half a day treatment.

"Inside Peanut Butter-Outside Jelly"...What Does It All Mean?
Monday. 8.28.06 6:22 pm
Many people missed the splash that 'the Sips Cadillac Don and J-Money made in the South throughout the summer with this verse....
"Inside peanut butter, outside jelly/Seven days of the week, seven different chevys/Black SS wit tha top blown off/(f*&^) with them boys and get ya top blown off." -- from the song "Peanut Butter and Jelly"
So, in case some of my East Coast/West Coast fam missed out on the heat, peep out their myspace page. The song sounds real laid back but believe me it gave the Mississippi rap game even more respect this summer. Their album is expected to drop later this year.
