Proving dreams do come true, Yung Gravy is going to the big leagues! The St. Louis Cardinals just offered him a 1-day contract, and the multi-platinum superstar graciously accepted the terms and his own custom jersey. St. Louis native and commentator Greg Amsinger notably broke the news on MLB Network’s MLB Tonight. Watch HERE.
As the story goes, your boy Gravy struck out (virally) after podcast host and influencer BobbiAlthoff asked him if he played for the Cardinals. So, he did what anybody in his position would do and turned to TikTok. He posted a video asking “if there are any teams out there who would be willing to have Yung Gravy,” with Cardinals as “first pick.” Thankfully, they obliged.
Next up, he returns to the road for his biggest headline jaunt yet, the “Grits & Gravy” Tour 2024 produced by Live Nation. As part of his next chapter, the enigmatic artist, entrepreneur, and phenomenon promises an evening of “All new country clappers and seasoned trap classics.” He rolls through San Diego, CA on July 3, plays major markets coast-to-coast, and wraps up this extravaganza with a massive hometown headline show in Minneapolis, MN on November 29.

Check out the full confirmed itinerary below.
Gravy strutted into the spotlight once more with his latest single and music video, “Clementine” from his upcoming album, Serving Country. About creating the song Yung Gravy shared, “I was staying at Zac Brown’s crib in Georgia and we tried sampling Chicken Fried. Turned out it was too perfect to be messed with, so I used that inspiration and cooked up a new song about my newfound love for Southern women.”
Gravy will remain on the road throughout the summer and Fall. In between dates on the “Grits & Gravy” Tour 2024, he appears at festivals such as Governor’s Ball and will play several dates in Australia and New Zealand with friend and collaborator bbno$ this July.

About Yung Gravy
Only the best things get better with age—wine, cheddar, 401ks, the list goes on. It turns out Yung Gravy gets better with age too.
When you think about it, the name Yung Gravy says a great deal. It’s perpetually youthful, and it oozes “sauce.” As such, Yung Gravy uses his own special recipe to bring originality and positivity to make his one-of-a-kind impact on the genre. Gravy flexes his passion for soul music and oldies in his production, sampling a wide range of musical styles dating from the 1940’s to the present-day. Nostalgic and often-jubilant melodies paired with heavy trap drums form the usual canvas for his signature baritone voice—reminiscent of Barry White.
Showcasing effortless flows and endlessly quotable lyrics, Yung Gravy paints something truly unique while clearly having a good time doing so. In the span of six short years, Gravy has transformed from Soundcloud stalwart to platinum powerhouse. To date, his accolades include three platinum and four gold singles as well as 10 sold out tours of North America, Europe, and Australia. He has collaborated with his self-proclaimed musical heroes, including Lil Wayne, Chief Keef, Juicy J, T-Pain, and the late Young Dolph. Gravy became the soundtrack, and unofficial second mascot, of the Tampa Bay Lightning, and was given an honorary Stanley Cup Ring. He starred in a worldwide commercial campaign with Martha Stewart, and weeks later performed for the VMAs and Jimmy Kimmel Live. Not to mention, he partnered with Dr. Pepper, Samsung and Jimmy John’s for campaigns.
Additionally, he’s also appeared in the blockbuster movie Good Burger 2 and wrote an original song for the soundtrack titled, “Gravy’s Delight.” Tallying 6 billion streams and selling 5 million units thus far, he’s notched four entries on the Billboard 200, two in the Top 30 of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart, and two on the Top 20 of the Top Album Sales Chart. He’ll hit the stage at Bottlerock and Hangout Music Festival in 2023.
For all of the swagger and style he exhibited upon his arrival, he managed to become even smoother since his introduction in 2016. After streams in the billions, packed venues, and “side missions” with Martha Stewart, he stirred up his tastiest sauce yet on his 2022 third full-length opus, Marvelous [Republic Records] introduced by the chart-topping platinum-certified Billboard Hot 100 Top 30 single “Betty (Get Money).”
