Chris Brown on his way to Israel
American rapper will stop in Rishon Lezion as part of his world tour
Grammy-award winning rapper Chris Brown is due to arrive in Israel next month as part of a world tour.
He will perform at the Rishon Lezion Amphitheater in Live Park on July 27. Tickets are reportedly going for NIS 259 ($69), or NIS 399 ($106) for front-row seats.
The artist is scheduled to perform in Jakarta and Hong Kong before arriving in Israel. He will continue on to Cyprus before returning to the United States.
The 26-year-old rap star released his first album in 2005. He has several platinum-selling albums and has won several Billboard and People’s Choice awards.
Brown’s reputation has been hurt in recent years by a 2009 domestic-violence conviction, in which he assaulted his former girlfriend, hip-hop star Rihanna.
