Janet Jackson is ready for another musical run!
The music icon and international superstar has announced the forthcoming album, Black Diamond, her first in over four years, and a North American area tour for summer 2020.
Produced by Live Nation, the trek kicks off on June 24 in Miami and journeys across the U.S. and Canada, with stops in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Toronto, Dallas, New York, and Los Angeles, before wrapping on Aug. 23 in Tacoma, Wash. She will also perform at the Essence Festival and Cincinnati Music Festival in July. International dates will be announced in the near future.
“I’ve heard all your wishes and I’m working on my new album and going on a new World Tour this summer titled ‘Black Diamond,'” tweeted Jackson. “I’m so excited to share this new era with you.”
In addition to new music, Jackson will perform songs from her 12 multi-platinum albums including a special performance of Rhythm Nation 1814, which marked its 30th anniversary last year. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Feb. 13, with a pre-sale starting Feb. 11.
Black Diamond will follow Jackson’s 2015 project, Unbreakable, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
