Erykah Badu brings New Amerykah to Old America

Erykah Badu brings New Amerykah to Old America

Erykah Badu wasn’t looking forward to a summer spent looking at the world through a “Window Seat,” so she’s decided to step out from behind the shut-off world of paned glass and head out on a summer tour to see the world from the top of a stage.

The super-sexy soul singer, who recently released her fourth studio album, New Amerykah Part 2 (Return of the Ankh) (TMT Review) on Universal Motown, has announced that she will be spending the end of May and most of June on the road supporting her newest album on the “Out My Mind, Just in Time” tour. The show will feature a revolving door of guests such as N.E.R.D., Bilal, Janelle Monáe, and Roots drummer ?uestlove, depending on the night.

In addition to her solo tour, Ms. Baduizm will also be playing two shows on fellow soul-singer Maxwell’s summer tour, joining recently restarted festival Lilith Fair for a handful of dates, as well as performing at this year’s Lollapalooza.
