Last week (September 23rd), the “Queen of Soul” Mary J. Blige exclusively announced her 2025 “The For My Fans Tour” on the SHERRI daytime talk show. The Grammy and Emmy award-winning and Oscar-nominated icon will be joined on the road by R&B superstars Ne-Yo and Mario. The tour will be coming on the heels of the release of her fifteenth studio album ‘Gratitude,’ which will be released on November 15th. Both the tour and album are celebrations of the love and gratitude that the New York City native has towards her life, family, friends, and her beloved fans.

The 27-city Live Nation produced tour will kick off on January 30th in Greensboro, NC at the Greensboro Coliseum. It will make stops across North America in Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York and more before wrapping up at TD Garden in Boston, MA on April 14th.

“I am so excited to kick off this tour. I have amazing fans and am so grateful for all of the love and support they have given me throughout the years,” said Mary J. Blige. “This tour is for them, and I cannot wait to be able to travel to all these cities and see everyone. I am in such a place of immense gratitude and peace at this moment, so also having the chance to release my new album “Gratitude” on November 15th ahead of this tour is really special to me.”

‘Gratitude’ will be released on November 15th through Blige’s own Beautiful Life Productions in partnership with 300 Entertainment. In August, the legend released the first single off the album, ‘Breathing’ featuring Fabolous. Check the video out above!

Before the album is released and the tour begins, Blige will have another reason to celebrate. In Cleveland, OH on October 19th, Blige will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the rest of the class of 2024. What an exciting time!
