The moment fans have been eagerly anticipating has finally arrived. After two decades, one of the most iconic R&B groups, B2K, who are celebrating their 25th anniversary, officially reunite for the “Boys 4 Life” Tour. The tour also marks more than 20 years since B2K and Bow Wow, who is co-headlining, first shared the stage during 2002’s Scream Tour II, a pivotal cultural milestone that helped define a generation. Powered by Black Promoters Collective (BPC), the 28-city tour kicks off Thursday, February 12, in Columbia, SC, and wraps Sunday, April 19, in Hampton, VA.
Additional performances by other sensational artists—including Jeremih, Waka Flocka, Amerie, Yung Joc, Crime Mob, Dem Franchize Boyz, and special guests Pretty Ricky – promise an unforgettable celebration of music and nostalgia—a true return to where it started.
Before general market sales begin, Local, Venue, and Promoter presales start Thursday, November 20, from 10 AM to 11:59 PM local time using the code BPC. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, November 21, at 10 AM local time. Fans can access tickets.
The buzz ignited earlier this year when B2K surprised fans with an explosive reunion moment at the 2025 BET Awards, instantly setting social media ablaze. The viral clip captured Omarion, Raz-B, J-Boog, and Lil Fizz back on stage together, reminding the world why their chemistry, music, and movement defined an era. Their return is a moment that will be etched in history.
“There was a certain level of authenticity that we all had. So in a way, we’re completing it,” Omarion teases in a now-viral Instagram clip, fueling excitement for what fans can expect from this long-awaited reunion.
With four Billboard Top 10 singles, a No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, and sold-out tours worldwide, B2K remains one of the most influential R&B groups. Known for hits like “Bump, Bump, Bump,” “Gots Ta Be,” “Uh Huh,” and “Why I Love You,” the group not only dominated the charts but also redefined performance, fashion, and fan culture for a generation of young music lovers, earning BET Awards, Billboard nominations, and millions of devoted fans worldwide. The “Boys 4 Life” title pays homage to that brotherhood and the timeless influence of Black music on global pop culture.
Co-headlining is multi-platinum recording artist, actor, and entrepreneur Bow Wow, celebrating his 25th anniversary as one of hip-hop’s longest-standing stars. With over 10 million albums sold, seven No. 1 hits, and major film credits from Like Mike to Lottery Ticket, Bow Wow helped redefine youth stardom in hip-hop and opened doors for an entire generation of young male artists. His crossover anthems—“Like You,” “Let Me Hold You,” and “Shortie Like Mine”—cemented his place as a cultural force. Earlier this year at the Breezy Bowl, Chris Brown brought him onstage and credited him with starting the modern era of popular music, a powerful acknowledgment of his lasting influence. Fresh off co-headlining BPC’s successful Millennium Tour 2025, Bow Wow’s impact and star power remain unmatched.
“With my 25-year anniversary in the music industry, I’m excited to finally bring this tour to life and give the fans what they’ve been waiting for,” states Bow Wow.
Both B2K and Bow Wow will release new albums in February in support of the tour via BPC Music Group, the award-winning Live Music company’s new record label arm, marking their official return to recording and performing at full scale.
Now, the “Boys 4 Life” Tour expands that nostalgia to new heights. Fans can expect high-energy performances, unforgettable collaborations, and the return of the soundtrack that shaped their lives. From Jeremih’s smooth R&B anthems to the infectious club hits of Pretty Ricky, who is enjoying their 20-year anniversary, Waka Flocka, Amerie, Yung Joc, Crime Mob, and Dem Franchize Boyz, the lineup brings together every facet of the era under one roof.
