Maxwell and Mary J. Blige are going on tour! The two R&B veterans have announced their co-headlining The King and Queen of Hearts World Tour with special guest Ro James. 

The North American leg will begin on November 5, at Royal Farms Arena in Baltimore, MD. Maxwell and Mary will also play in cities such as Philadelphia, New York, Atlanta, and Dallas, before wrapping up in Chicago on December 14.

“Mary is the epitome of soul,” Maxwell said in a statement. “She embodies all that is woman and speaks for the everyday struggle and triumphs of all women. I can’t wait to get on the road with her.”

Marry adds, “Maxwell’s music is amazingly soulful and calm with a colorful tone that speaks to the hearts of women. His music makes them feel loved and I’m excited to get on the road with him.”

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Maxwell explained that this tour is not a business deal, but something that he and Mary actually wanted to do.

“So many of these tours are orchestrated, but this is actually a thing that we wanted to do,” he said. “We’re part of each other’s teams. She came up with the title of the tour, and it’s perfect. There are a lot of other titles that were floating around that were like, ‘Give me a break.’ She was like, ‘Why don’t you just call it the King and Queen of Hearts Tour?’ It’s like, ‘Bam! Done.’ Whatever you need. It speaks of who she is, the humility, and that she knows marketing. As artists, we speak to the hearts of people. Love is the message. And as Mary would say, love is all we need. And that’s what we’re here to give.”
