Kanye West is bringing his “Life of Pablo” merchandise to 21 cities around the globe this weekend – and Atlanta is one of them.

The rapper tweeted a map Wednesday night noting the locations of his pop up shops, but no other information.

According to Vogue , the temporary stores will only be open for three days; each city will be notified of the exact location 24 hours in advance via www.kanyewest.com.

Some of the other cities that will receive customized shirts emblazoned with Cali Thornhill DeWitt’s gothic script are Singapore, Sydney, Toronto, Cape Town, Philadelphia, Houston and New York.
