According to ratedrnb.com, Monica, Tevin Campbell, Tamar Braxton and many other R&B veterans are going to be on the road this fall for the R&B Music Experience Tour, Presented by Global Events Production. The 18 city tour will get started on October first in Atlanta, Georgia at the State Farm Arena before heading to cities such as Charlotte, Chicago, Miami, Dallas, New Orleans, and Nashville, with the tour ending on December 17th, at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. Other acts booked include, 112, Bell Biv DeVoe, Bobby Brown, Dru Hill, Ginuwine, H-Town, Keith Sweat, Next, Raheem DeVaughn, Shai, Silk and Xscape.
Monica is sure to perform some of her classic songs and it wouldn’t at all be surprising if she performs her latest single “Friends,” that features Ty Dolla $ign. Firends was released almost a year after Monica shared her Lil Baby featured single, “Trenches.” Monica is also entering the world of country music with her debut country music album titled Open Roads. In speaking about the album she said, “I felt like this was a great time for me to really step into an area that I’ve always admired and loved, We’re just getting started, but I have so enjoyed it and been welcomed with open arms.”
Braxton recently announced that her upcoming album will need to be re-recorded in a statement she made on Instagram. “Trust me putting out new music hasn’t been easy for me- although an ENTIRE project was ready and then vanished into thin air, I want you all to be just a little bit more patient while I start over, put my heart and soul into my new found feelings, finally feeling free enough to sing about the old ones and create new, better, memories with you all.”
Campbell however, hasn’t released new music in recent years, but has been performing. Earlier this month he made an appearance at usher’s Las Vegas residency in order to perform his hit “Can We Talk.” He was also presented with the R&B Icon Award at the 2022 Black Music Honors over the summer.
