New-model rap star Ken Carson is bringing his ‘X Man Tour’ to Orlando this month, and you’re advised not to miss a musician dubbed a “leader of the new school” by Complex.

Still in his late teens, Carson was the first signee to Playboi Carti’s Opium Records imprint. Carson just dropped newest album X, continuing a run of prolific productivity that started during the pandemic lockdown in 2020, resulting in several EPs and now a second full-length. He’s been called one of the leading lights of the young “rage” rap  movement, an eclectic and adrenalized trap offshoot.

Ken Carson plays the Beacham on Tuesday, Sept. 20, at 6:30 p.m. As of this writing, tickets are still up for grabs at SeeTickets.
