Philly, get your purple tape memories and Queensbridge anthems ready—Raekwon x Mobb Deep hit The Fillmore Philadelphia on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, for a one-night, one-set salute to two era-defining classics: “Only Built 4 Cuban Linx…” and “The Infamous”. Presented by LOUD Live and produced by Live Nation, this 19-city co-headlining run brings Raekwon x Mobb Deep on stage together, flowing in and out of each other’s catalogs for one seamless performance loaded with deep cuts, street sermons, and the hits that rewired East Coast hip-hop.
Ticket timing is straightforward and worth moving quickly on: artist presale opens Wednesday, August 13 at 10 a.m., with general on-sale starting Friday, August 15 at 10 a.m. via LiveNation.com. For fans stepping up their night, the VIP program stacks value: a GA ticket with priority entry, an individual meet & greet and photo op with Raekwon and Havoc, an official tour tee, and pre-show merch shopping—smart upgrades for a tour that promises “pure, raw, unfiltered energy.”
Expect Raekwon x Mobb Deep to lace Philly with surprise guests and hard-charging momentum from lights-up to last hook; it’s a proper 30th-anniversary victory lap for two monumental records performed by the men who made them immortal.

Raekwon x Mobb Deep: Cuban Linx and the Infamous
This tour isn’t nostalgia—it’s living history. Raekwon x Mobb Deep arrive with a combined legacy that still dictates the tempo of serious rap shows: cinematic mafioso narratives from Staten Island’s Chef, and granite-hard reality raps from Queensbridge’s finest. Hearing Cuban Linx and The Infamous braided into a single set is a deliberate choice: it collapses two towering universes into one continuous charge, the way these records have always lived in our heads. Raekwon is fresh off newer chapters (The Emperor’s New Clothes dropped this summer), and Havoc carries Mobb Deep’s torch with the reverence it deserves—every bassline, every siren-cold piano loop landing with the weight of a classic that still breathes.

For Raekwon x Mobb Deep, the production scale matches the moment. The Fillmore’s sound system is built for that low-end authority that makes “Shook Ones Pt. II” and “Guillotine (Swordz)” feel like they’re shaking the rafters, while the room’s sightlines keep the set intimate—eyes on the stage, voices raised for the ad-libs everyone knows by muscle memory.
LOUD’s Steve Rifkind calls this tour a benchmark for the culture, and he’s right: it’s the rare anniversary show that promises to perform like a live documentary—authentic grit, heavyweight pacing, and no filler. Philly gets it on the right night, in the right room, at the right time. If you grew up on these records—or you discovered them long after 1995—Raekwon x Mobb Deep at The Fillmore is the way you honor them: in the crowd, rapping every bar back to the architects.
