Shyne stopped by HOT 97 to talk to Nessa about his upcoming headlining show on May 2, 2026 at Kings Theatre — his first ever as a solo headliner since the release of his debut album Shyne in 2000. The show marks the 25th anniversary of the album and serves as a celebration of a career that was interrupted just 90 days after his debut dropped. He opens up about not being able to tour at the height of his success, what this homecoming in Brooklyn truly means, and why this night feels bigger than redemption.
He also reflects on his journey from incarceration to becoming an elected official in Belize, the impact of his deportation, and how spirituality changed his life. Shyne speaks candidly about his time with Bad Boy Records, his complicated history with Diddy, being compared to The Notorious B.I.G., and how he views that conversation today. He shares what success looks like now as a father, humanitarian, and public servant — and teases new music, possible surprise guests, and what fans can expect to feel when they leave Kings Theatre on May 2nd.
