Young Thug New Generation Tour Line-Up: NAV & YSL

Young Thug, the Atlanta rapper and founder of YSL Records, has confirmed the full artist line-up for The New Generation Tour, his first headline run in more than six years. NAV joins as special guest on the North American leg, and a roster of the label's newest signees performs across all 23 dates in North America and Europe. The tour is billed, in the promoter's own wording, as "YSL Records & Young Thug Present The New Generation Tour," a name that signals the roster of newer label signees sharing the bill, not a single support act.

The line-up answers three questions fans keep asking: who else is on the bill, who NAV actually is to Young Thug, and whether a rumoured pairing with Mariah the Scientist belongs on this list at all. Here is what is confirmed, act by act.

Who is headlining and supporting on The New Generation Tour?

Young Thug tops the bill on every date of the tour. NAV joins as special guest on the North American dates only. The seven-strong YSL roster performs throughout both the North American and European legs alongside their label founder: Tezzus, 1300SAINT, Iyrus, Yume, Biggs, Unky and diamond*.

Quick reference:

• Headliner: Young Thug, on every date of the run
• Special guest: NAV, North American dates only
• YSL roster (both legs): Tezzus, 1300SAINT, Iyrus, Yume, Biggs, Unky, diamond*

That YSL roster is the "new generation" the tour name refers to: newer signees to Young Thug's own label sharing arena and amphitheatre stages with him rather than opening on smaller club dates. It is the clearest signal yet of who the label is building around next, and it runs the full length of the tour, from the North American opener in Rogers, Arkansas, through to the European closer in Paris. For background on Young Thug himself, including his route from Atlanta's mixtape scene to founding YSL Records, see his full artist profile.

"Special guest" is a distinct billing from the YSL roster acts. It marks NAV out as an artist performing alongside Young Thug for a defined stretch of the tour, not as a label signee on the wider bill, which is why his appearance is scoped to the North American leg alone.

Who is NAV?

NAV is the special guest billed on Young Thug's North American dates for The New Generation Tour, and only those dates. The "special guest" tag is what separates him from the YSL roster: those acts are signed to Young Thug's own label and run the length of the tour, whereas NAV's billing ties him to one leg alongside the headliner, not to the label itself.

NAV is not currently listed among the acts for any of the four European dates. So for date planning, his appearance counts as a North American leg feature, not a tour-wide one.

Is Mariah the Scientist on the tour?

Mariah the Scientist features on Young Thug's 2025 album UY SCUTI, but she is not part of The New Generation Tour's confirmed line-up, and the announced acts do not include her. She also has her own, separately announced 2026 tour dates in support of her own album, which is a further reason the two tours should not be confused with one another.

A recording feature on an album is not the same thing as a confirmed touring slot, and nothing in the official announcement lists Mariah the Scientist as a performer on any of the 23 dates.

Is NAV on the European dates?

NAV is confirmed for the North American leg of The New Generation Tour only. None of the four European dates, Amsterdam, Düsseldorf, Łódź or Paris, currently lists NAV among the confirmed acts; the European leg runs with Young Thug and the YSL roster. There is also no UK date on the announced run at all, so the question of a European NAV appearance does not currently extend to a UK show either way. The latest on whether a UK date might join the run is tracked on the potential UK date page.

Has the line-up changed since the tour was announced?

No changes have been made to the line-up since The New Generation Tour was first announced on 13 July 2026, via a tour poster shared across Young Thug and YSL Records' own social channels. NAV and the full YSL roster were named as part of that same announcement, alongside the full list of North American and European dates. All of it landed in the one reveal.

For anyone planning around a specific act, that consistency matters: the roster confirmed here has been public since day one, not a partial reveal still being filled in. Any future change, such as an additional support act being added to a specific date, would be the kind of update worth checking back for, though nothing of that sort has been reported so far.

The line-up at a glance

Across the full 23-date run, spanning a North American opener in Rogers, Arkansas, and a European closer in Paris, the acts confirmed so far break down into three distinct roles: Young Thug as headliner throughout, NAV as special guest for the North American leg only, and the seven-strong YSL roster performing alongside Young Thug across both legs. No other acts, including Mariah the Scientist, are currently part of the announced bill, and there is no UK date on the run for any act to be confirmed against yet.
