Hip-hop fans have reason to celebrate: during a recent appearance on Cam’ron’s podcast, legendary rapper Shyne revealed big plans to mark the 25th anniversary of his debut album. The Belizean artist and former politician confirmed not only a commemorative tour but also multiple new music projects tied to his upcoming TV series and a motion picture.
When Cam’ron asked for clarity on the rumors, Shyne confirmed:
“To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Shyne album, we’re going to do a 25th anniversary tour. So we’re going to work on that and then we are going to do 2 more albums, because we have a TV series coming out.”
The tour will mark a historic return — Shyne has not performed a full concert in the United States in nearly 25 years. Fans who have long missed his commanding stage presence will finally get their chance to see him live again.
Shyne also shared that his creative vision extends beyond the stage. With a TV series in development, he intends to craft original music that enhances the storytelling:
“I want to do something similar to Narcos, Power, [and] BMF. But what I want to do is I want to create new music for the TV series. So not a soundtrack but an album. And then for the motion picture we’ll do another album.”
This approach ensures fans get more than nostalgia — they’ll be treated to fresh material that pushes Shyne’s artistry forward while complementing his on-screen projects.
When Cam’ron pressed about potential surprises on tour, Shyne left the door open for major moments:
“There’s no way I could perform in New York and not have you on stage… And then you know me and Mase got a song together.”
While he was careful not to promise Mase’s involvement, Shyne made it clear that collaborations could be part of the tour’s magic, bringing longtime friends and fellow hip-hop veterans back into the spotlight alongside him.
Reflecting on the achievement, Shyne acknowledged the significance of reaching this moment in his career:
“Nobody gets 25th anniversary status very easily… Shyne is a classic album, a lot of people love that album and a lot of people have been missing me for 25 years.”
With decades away from the U.S. stage, the rapper-turned-statesman is ready to reconnect with fans and deliver what he promises will be “something spectacular.”
