Rap icon Busta Rhymes has announced an exciting new addition to his international performance schedule, revealing plans for a special stadium show in Johor, Malaysia. The Grammy-nominated artist took to Instagram to share the news with his fans, expressing his enthusiasm for the upcoming event.

“THE BLESSINGS DON’T STOP SO WE WON’T EVER STOP!! NEVERRRR!! JOHOR, MALAYSIA WE ARE HERE WITH A HUGE SPECIAL STADIUM PERFORMANCE FOR THE CHAMPION SOCCER TEAM @officialjohor,” Busta wrote in his characteristically energetic style, accompanied by multiple fire emojis to emphasize his excitement.

The hip-hop legend’s post continued with a promise for attendees: The upcoming performance would be “INCREDIBLE CRAZZZZZY!!” before urging fans not to miss out on the event.

The performance will be held for Johor Darul Ta’zim F.C. (commonly known as JDT), one of Malaysia’s most successful soccer clubs. While specific details about the date and venue haven’t been shared yet, the announcement has already generated significant buzz among fans in the region.

This Malaysian performance marks another international stop for Busta Rhymes, maintaining an active global touring schedule. Just days before announcing the Johor show, the rapper shared photos from his time in Qatar, where he performed and spent time with NBA stars Carmelo Anthony and Tony Parker, along with musician Teddy Swims.

Born Trevor George Smith Jr. in Brooklyn, New York, Busta Rhymes’s explosive solo career took off with his 1996 debut album “The Coming,” which featured the breakthrough hit “Woo Hah!! Got You All in Check.” Known for his rapid-fire delivery, distinctive voice, and larger-than-life persona, Busta has remained a formidable force in hip-hop for over three decades. His catalog includes hits like “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See,” “Break Ya Neck,” “Dangerous,” and “Touch It,” among many others. Throughout his career, Busta has earned 12 Grammy Award nominations and has sold millions of records worldwide, cementing his status as one of rap’s most enduring figures.

Before his international tour stops, Busta has been busy with various collaborations. He recently highlighted a track titled “Show Me Your Love” by artists Trillian and NLE Choppa, promoting the song and video on his social media platforms. He’s also been supporting fellow hip-hop veterans, sharing posts celebrating Roc Marciano’s sold-out performance at SOBs in New York City and Killer Mike’s birthday.

Busta’s upcoming performance in Malaysia represents his ongoing commitment to connecting with fans worldwide. The special stadium show for Johor’s champion soccer team will add to his extensive performance resume, which includes concerts across multiple continents.

As fans await more details about the exact date and venue for the Johor performance, Busta’s announcement has already stirred excitement among his Malaysian followers and soccer fans.
