Bow Wow has made it clear he has a problem with The Millennium Tour not having a higher placement on a recent Billboard list.
From March to May, the rapper was a co-headliner on the latest iteration of the tour with Omarion and Trey Songz, alongside Boosie BadAzz, Rick Ross and more as support acts.
Even with a packed R&B and hip-hop roster, the live engagement wasn't mentioned on Billboard's recent list of top ten highest-grossing rap tours of 2025, which named Kendrick Lamar, Tyler, the Creator and NBA YoungBoy as artists with the most box office draw.
In an Instagram Story posted on Friday (December 26), Bow Wow explained his problem with The Millennium Tour not being recognized by the music publication. He also mentioned Complex, although the Complex Music social media post about the tour was just a repost of Billboard's 2025 rap tour breakdown.
"Whoever up there in that office controlling them lists or making these lists, I'm just confused on how Billboard awarded me and Omarion the best rap tour of 2022 rap tours, but then they dropped the list for best R&B tour," Bow Wow said.
"We've always been in that category. Number eight. Appreciate that. $22 million, Top 10. Thank you. But when it comes to the best rap tour, y'all do know I'm a rapper, right?" he continued.
The rapper added that there were names on Billboard's rap tour list that The Millennium Tour "outsold." "Make it make sense, man," Bow Wow concluded. "I just want my roses, too."
As Bow Wow mentioned, The Millennium Tour did rank on Billboard's R&B tour list, grossing $22.1 million across 26 shows and over 200,000 tickets sold, although Omarion and Trey Songz are the only ones named as headliners.
With that figure, if the tour was considered by Billboard as a rap tour, it would have featured at number eight on the list, beating out both Rod Wave's Last Lap Tour & The Redemption Experience, and Central Cee's Can’t Rush Greatness World Tour.
