 Atlantic Records announced the signing of Georgia-based rapper Donnis this week, and the kid is already hard at work, headling out on his first US tour.
The rising rapper will be among the multi-artist hip-hop bill, entitled the "Crowd Control Tour," alongside other acts such as the Kidz In The Hall, 88-Keys and Izza Kizza.
The 16-city trek kicked off on February 28th at New York City's Highline Ballroom, and will be continuing through early April.
Donnis has been making a name for himself on the southern hip-hop scene, as one of the most talented new stars. He first attracted attention last year with 10.Deep's breakout mixtape, Diary of an ATL Brave, and has since scored major appeal amongst listeners with his smoothed out rap anthem "Gone".
"Donnis is a truly original, compelling new voice on the hip-hop landscape, and we pulled out all the stops to bring him into the Atlantic family," said Atlantic Records CEO, Craig Kallman.
"His creativity and lyrical flow are hugely impressive, and the Diary of an ATL Brave mixtape was a captivating introduction to this major talent. Now that we've sealed the deal, we're looking forward to watching Donnis take it to the next level."
While hard at work completing his Atlantic debut album, Donnis will keep listeners entertained with his new mixtape Fashionably Late set to be released this month.
