Mary J. Blige will perform in a For My Fans Tour, which will feature special guests Ne-Yo and Mario, promoters announced Monday.

The impending Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's tour has 27 dates starting in January.

Tickets for the shows go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, and Citi pre-sale tickets go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. Wednesday.

Blige, known by listeners for decades as the Queen of Hip-hop Soul, is due to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame during a ceremony in Cleveland in October. She joins a class that includes Cher, the Dave Matthews Band, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Kool & the Gang, Ozzy Osbourne and A Tribe Called Quest.

The For My Fans tour kicks off Jan. 30 in Greensboro, North Carolina, and wraps April 14 in Boston.

The 53-year-old hitmaker's new studio album, "Gratitude," is due out Nov. 15. It's the follow-up to her last set, 2022's "Good Morning Gorgeous."
