Doja Cat and Latto bring Tour Ma Vie to State Farm Arena on Tuesday, Nov. 17

The North American leg of Doja Cat's world tour reaches Atlanta with the city's own Latto as special guest.

Atlanta gets a homecoming on someone else's tour next week. Doja Cat plays State Farm Arena on Tuesday, Nov. 17, at 7:30 p.m., with Latto as special guest. Tickets are through Ticketmaster, and the arena holds 21,000.

It's a stop on the Tour Ma Vie World Tour, which supports Doja Cat's album *Vie*. The North American leg opened Oct. 1 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit and wraps Dec. 1 at Madison Square Garden. In the weeks before Atlanta, the tour hits Phoenix, Las Vegas, Austin, Dallas, San Antonio and Houston, so by the time it reaches State Farm Arena the show will be well broken in.

Atlanta has a particular claim on this one. By our count, Doja Cat has played Atlanta more than any other market we track. And the opener is local royalty: the Chicago Sun-Times, reviewing the tour's Oct. 3 stop at the United Center, described Latto as the first platinum-selling female rap artist from Atlanta.

Latto is on every date of the 31-city North American run, Pollstar reported when the pairing was announced in July. Doja Cat revealed it alongside the video for "Okayyy," their collaboration from Latto's album *Big Mama*, as HipHop-N-More reported. Expect that song to be the moment of the night when the two share a stage, and expect Atlanta to be loud for it.

In Atlanta, Latto isn't the opener. She's the hometown half of the bill.

What does the show look like? The Sun-Times review called it energetic and femme-forward, with Doja Cat strutting, slinking and shaking through the set. That's the headline from a critic who saw it a month before Atlanta, and it's a fair preview of what an arena run this deep into its leg tends to deliver: tight, rehearsed and big.

A few practical notes. It's a Tuesday night with a 7:30 p.m. start, so plan to come straight downtown from work. Latto's set is part of the draw here, so don't treat the support slot as optional; get there in time. MARTA's rail stations near the arena are the easiest way to skip post-show traffic.

Most cities on this tour get a pop star and a guest. Atlanta gets one of its own on the same stage as an artist who, by our records, comes here more than anywhere else. Show up early and stay loud.
