A Boogie Wit da Hoodie celebrated a decade of his breakthrough mixtape Artist with two sold-out headline performances at UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, on October 29 and 30. The anniversary marked ten years since the Bronx rapper introduced his melodic approach to hip-hop, launching a career that has since produced diamond-certified hits and international success.

The opening night brought an impressive collection of special guests to the stage, including 50 Cent, Fat Joe, Remy Ma, G Herbo, Loe Shimmy, and J.I the Prince of NY, along with New York Yankees star Jazz Chisholm Jr. The celebration featured fan favorites from throughout A Boogie’s career, including the diamond-certified “Drowning,” five-times platinum “Jungle,” and four-times platinum “My Shit.“

The second sold-out performance on October 30 was billed with DaBaby, Moneybagg Yo, and Zeddy Will, completing a two-night celebration of the project that established A Boogie as one of New York’s most recognizable contemporary hip-hop artists.

Released in 2016, Artist introduced listeners to A Boogie’s distinctive combination of melodic hooks, introspective storytelling, and New York rap influences. The platinum-certified mixtape helped establish the foundation for subsequent hits, including “Look Back at It,” which has since achieved seven-times platinum certification.

The milestone celebrations follow the release of his six-track EP Before Artistry earlier this year. The project includes “Glitchin,” “PGD” featuring Kyle Richh and Zeddy Will, and “Red Light” featuring Trippie Redd. The release reflects A Boogie’s continued evolution while maintaining the melodic style that first distinguished his music.

Following the UBS Arena celebrations, A Boogie continues his final North American headline dates of 2026, with upcoming performances in Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto, Orlando, Minneapolis, and Hartford. Support across select dates includes DaBaby, Cash Cobain, J.I the Prince of NY, G Herbo, BabyChiefDoit, Moneybagg Yo, and Zeddy Will.
