American singer Mary J. Blige has paid tribute to her fans ahead of her 2025 ‘The For My Fans Tour.’

Recently, the “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul” announced the tour, which will feature special guests like NE-YO and Mario.

In anticipation of the tour, Mary is set to release a new album, ‘Gratitude’, on November 15, 2024. The album honors the love she’s received from family, friends, and loyal fans, and she believes it’s time for celebration. The first single from the album, ‘Breathing’, featuring Fabolous, was released in August.

The Grammy and Emmy award-winning, Oscar-nominated singer-songwriter expressed her deep appreciation for her fans while discussing the upcoming tour.

“I am so excited to kick off this tour. I have amazing fans and am so grateful for all of the love and support they have given me throughout the years,” said Mary J. Blige. “This tour is for them, and I cannot wait to travel to all these cities and see everyone. I am in such a place of immense gratitude and peace at this moment, so being able to release my new album, Gratitude, on November 15th ahead of the tour is really special to me.”
