R&B veterans Kem and Babyface will be hitting the road together, and as an added bonus, comedian Sherri Shepherd is slated to host the musical festivities in each city. Starting March 30 at the Virginia State University Center, Kem and collaborator Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds are set to make 26 stops nationwide as part of The Full Circle Tour, named after Kem’s forthcoming extended play. With highly anticipated performances in Baltimore, New Orleans, Atlanta, Orlando, Houston, Detroit, Las Vegas and Los Angeles, The Full Circle Tour is scheduled to conclude at the Oakland Arena in Oakland, CA on May 15. Tickets will be available for purchase at Ticketmaster with presale starting today. General on sale begins on Jan. 28. The tour marks the first of its kind for Kem, who released the album “Love Always Wins” in August 2020. The 12-track project is just shy of an hour listen, and features special guest appearances by Brian Culbertson, Toni Braxton and Erica Campbell. He released the deluxe edition in September, featuring the same three artists and two remixes. The Full Circle Tour comes in celebration of Kem’s forthcoming project; the official release date has yet to be announced. Kem appeared on Billboard’s Artist 100 tally in 2014, peaking at No. 18 on the list, where he charted for four weeks. He has released three top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart. His 2010 project, “Intimacy: Album 3”, debuted at No. 2, while 2005’s “Album 2” debuted at No. 5, and 2014’s “Promise To Love: Album IV” debuted at No. 3. Babyface has appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 chart 13 times, with five top 10 hits. See the tour dates below.
