Unfortunately, we won’t be able to see the legend in June… Rakim has cancelled his European tour scheduled for May and June 2024, which also means that his concert on June 3, 2024 at Lucerna Music Bar is cancelled. Tickets will be refunded in the coming days via GoOut, no need to apply for a refund.
Thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the cancellation.

Management statement:
With great remorse, we have come to the conclusion that Rakim’s planned European tour in May and June is no longer a feasible possibility for us and have decided to cancel the trip over. There are a number of reasons for this (travel logistics, medical complications, personal obligations…. and to be quite blunt, mental and physical exhaustion after a year in which Rakim performed at over 120 events). Each of these as a stand alone may not be a sufficient explanation to pull out of the tour, but cumulatively they add up… and I am not confident that we would be able to pull off 27+ shows in the time frame allotted and keep the standard of performance at the level Rakim’s fans expect and deserve. In the US, we have been doing short 2-4 show runs once a month and even these have proved difficult. We have discussed modifying the tour to either reduce the number of dates or extending the trip to space things out, but from a financial and logistical standpoint, it does not work and would ultimately shortchange some of the promoters and fans anyway.
Rakim Allah. The best of the best. The creator of flow. Inventor of the hidden verse. Discoverer of new rhyming possibilities. President of the golden era of rap. On June 3, 2024, he will be in the Czech Republic for the first time. When he burst onto the scene, he was a revelation. Something no one had ever heard before. A voice. Style. Flow. Content. Size. Expression. Respect for the scene. They can debate if someone wasn’t more fresh, cool, fly, def, or had more swag. But one name is beyond any debate and no one, NO ONE, would ever dispute it. Rakim. You just don’t want to miss this event. Tickets are on sale in three waves – 690 CZK, 790 CZK and 890 CZK.
