2 Chainz Aka Tity Boi announced a live sit-down event for Monday, May 18 in Atlanta. He’ll be joined by Killer Mike to talk about his New York Times bestselling book, “The Voice In My Head is God.”
On Instagram, 2 Chainz made the call back home sound easy. He wrote, “Something been tellin me to circle back home to Atl, and by popular demand next Monday I sit with my brother @killermike to talk about my New York Times Best seller ‘The Voice In My Head is God.’” Tickets are available through his bio.
That’s a pretty chill way to announce genuinely big news. The New York Times Bestsellers list is competitive. Cracking it as a first-time author isn’t guaranteed, even with a long music career behind you. 2 Chainz has been a constant in hip-hop for well over a decade, putting out hits and stacking collaborations with some of the biggest names in the game. A NYT Bestseller is a different kind of win. It opens different doors.
The title carries weight on its own. “The Voice In My Head is God” is spiritual, bold, and deeply personal. It sounds like a project that didn’t come out overnight. A live conversation feels like the right format for a book like this. Not a party night or a release show. Something more considered.
Framing the Atlanta event as a homecoming was clearly a deliberate choice. 2 Chainz didn’t describe this as a media appearance or a promotional obligation. He talked about circling back. Coming home. Answering popular demand. That’s a different energy from a typical book tour stop.
Choosing Killer Mike as the conversation partner makes a lot of sense. The Run the Jewels rapper brings a lot to a conversation beyond rapping. He’s been outspoken on politics, community, and culture for years. He shows up ready to have a real conversation, not just hype the product.
Both artists have deep roots in Atlanta. Both have built careers stretching well past music. Killer Mike has become one of Atlanta’s most recognizable voices beyond the recording booth. Sitting down together to dig into a New York Times bestselling book is exactly the kind of event the city shows up for.
The “popular demand” line in the post hints that this Atlanta stop might not be the only one on the calendar. But starting at home carries its own meaning. Atlanta has always been central to 2 Chainz’s identity as an artist. Celebrating this milestone in his own city, alongside one of its biggest names, closes something in a satisfying way.
Tickets are available through 2 Chainz’s Instagram bio for anyone in the Atlanta area ready to be in the room.
Two Atlanta originals. One New York Times bestseller. May 18. That one’s going to hit different.
