Erykah Badu at Hollywood Bowl

Mama’s Gun 2025

The hype is real y’all - for real. And us here at The Fillmore Silver Spring are beyond excited to welcome the legendary Erykah Badu and the one-and-only hip hop don Alchemist to our stage this summer, as the two icons team up for the first time ever for her solo Mama’s Gun 2025 Tour — coming through to the home of music LA LA on October 3rd, and one of the only stops on this ten show run across America celebrating their new goated album. This is one of the most highly anticipated shows of the entire year, with Badu and Badu’s Band the Cannabinoids  sharing the stage in celebration of their joint project, and bringing that rare mix of soul, hip-hop, jazz, and psychedelia that only these two could pull off together. All with it being Erykah’s first album in a decade and a half?? The moment is just… way too good to miss. 

Erykah Badu, long considered the godmother of neo-soul and one of the most original voices of modern music, continues to redefine what longevity looks like. From Baduizm to Mama’s Gun and every wild turn since, she’s always stayed ahead of her time. And now, teaming up with Alchemist — she’s opening a whole new chapter. The two just dropped their lead single “Next To You,” and if that dreamy blend of Mobb Deep drums and velvet Badu vocals tells us anything, it’s that this album is going to be something really special. Soulful. Experimental. Unexpected. And totally in their own lane.

The Mama's Gun - The Return Of Automatic Slim Tour 2025 will hit just a handful of cities across the U.S., making this Los Angeles stop a rare and intimate chance to catch two masters at the top of their craft. From her timeless catalog to this next wave of sound, Badu continues to show why she’s one of the most influential artists of our time. And with The Alchemist on deck — coming off recent work with Freddie Gibbs, Boldy James, and Earl Sweatshirt — you know the vibes are going to be immaculate. And you know you gotta be here for it all. 

So whether you’ve been riding with Badu since ‘97, or you’re just discovering the genius of this new collaboration, this is the show you don’t want to miss. It’s history, it’s groove, it’s soul, it’s beats — and it’s all going down right here at The Hollywood Bowl

Grab your tickets today, mark your calendar for October 3rd, and we’ll see you right here on the floor. Don’t be late familia!
