According to Consequence.net, Erykah Badu has announced 2026 North American tour featuring producer The Alchemist and pioneering rap group De La Soul.

In January, Badu released a 25th anniversary reissue of her sophomore classic, Mama’s Gun. Last year, she teased her first studio album since 2010, Abi & Alan, which was produced entirely by The Alchemist. The first single, “Next to You,” was released in June 2025, but the project missed its original August 29 release date and has yet to arrive. On another note, Badu and The Alchemist previewed the album, while on the road last year and this upcoming tour could be a sign that the project is closer to seeing the light of day.
