Isn’t it just marvelous?

American rapper, song writer and social media sensation Yung Gravy is coming to Kansas State University.

Yung Gravy will perform at 8 p.m, Thursday, April 11 at Bramlage Coliseum with doors opening at 7 p.m. Student tickets are $5 and go on sale at 8:30 a.m., Tuesday, March 19 at tinyurl.com/KStateYungGravy. General public tickets are $20 and will be available at 8:30 a.m., Thursday, March 21. All prices include fees and taxes.

The concert is organized and sponsored by the Union Program Council in partnership with the K-State Student Union and Union Governing Board.

Yung Gravy uses his own special recipe to bring originality and positivity to make his one-of-a-kind impact on the genre. Gravy flexes his passion for soul music and oldies in his production, sampling a wide range of musical styles dating from the 1940s to the present day. His musical style is a blend of hip-hop, funk and modern trap with themes inspired by soul and oldies,  giving him a unique sound in the rap community. For example, his platinum breakout hit “Mr. Clean'' samples the popular 1954 song “Mr. Sandman” by The Chordettes. His first Billboard Hot 100 single “Betty (Get Money)” samples Rick Astley’s 1988 smash “Never Gonna Give You Up.”

For all the swagger and style exhibited upon his arrival, Gravy has managed to become even smoother as he stirred up tastiest sauce yet on his 2022 third full-length opus, Marvelous featuring the singles “C’est La Vie” and “Dancing in the Rain” along with “Betty.” He comments, “We needed to rail people with the first drop of the album. It shows I’m back and my best friend is on the track, it came out really hot.” 

Yung Gravy’s accolades include two platinum and five gold singles, and he recently performed sold out tours in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. He is also known for his successful hits “Oops!” and “Welcome to Chilis”
