"I am looking forward to the 'Coca-Cola Refresh Your Flow Tour.' It's a unique opportunity for me to bring a message of positivity and what it really means to be cool," Lupe Fiasco said in a statement. "I hope it will be an unforgettable experience for every teen who attends."

Tickets for the tour can only be acquired through participating radio stations, retailers, and through the Coca-Cola street team.

Also, a select number of Boys and Girls Club's will be distributing the tickets to deserving club members.

"The 'Coca-Cola Refresh Your Flow Tour' continues Coca-Cola's tradition of connecting African American teens with something they love – Coca-Cola and music," Yolanda White, assistant vice president, African American Marketing, Coca-Cola North America said in a statement. "Not only will each concert offer the teens an unforgettable musical experience, it will give each of them a taste of the Coke Side of Life – a moment in time that is refreshingly optimistic and uplifting."

Most recently, Lupe Fiasco joined N.E.R.D. and Rihanna for the "Glow in the Dark Tour" earlier this year.
