Hot off the release of her latest album, Strength of a Woman, Mary J. Blige is hitting the road.
Featuring Lala Hathaway, the “Strength of a Woman Live” tour is set to kick off July 1 at the Essence Festival in New Orleans. From there, the jaunt will continue through Atlantic City and Philadelphia, before heading overseas.

The 34-date tour comes in support of Strength of a Woman, which opened at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. Released last month, the album features Kanye West, Quavo, Missy Elliott, and DJ Khaled.
