As anticipation for their forthcoming RTJ3 album continues to mount, un the Jewels have announced their first full scale North American headlining tour since 2015. The “Run the World” tour kicks off mid-January in Philadelphia and continues through to the end of February, with stops in veritably every major city in the US along the way. Support for the tour will be provided by Brainfeeder-affiliated hip hop experimentalist The Gaslamp Killer, mysterious underground MC Spark Master Tape, & longtime Killer Mike collaborator CUZ. Tickets go on sale this Friday, November 4th at 10am local time (with exception of New York & St. Paul which go on sale at noon). More announcements detailing worldwide tour dates are expected in the near future.
This all comes on the heels of a big week for the duo, who debuted “Talk To Me,” the first single from RTJ3, to universal acclaim, and guested on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in a raunchy new Halloween anthem “The Halloween Wiggle.”
