Kehlani is officially taking their show on the road!
Fresh off the release of one of the most celebrated R&B albums of the year, the 31-year-old GRAMMY-nominated superstar took to Instagram to officially announce the upcoming KEHLANI WORLD TOUR, which will kickoff in the US.
In a super fun and comedic clip posted to her social media, Kehlani is seen hilariously mapping out the tour logistics. While the official dates and specific cities have not yet been revealed, the teaser alone instantly sent fans into a frenzy across the internet, with anticipation building for what is already shaping up to be one of the biggest R&B tours of 2026.
Kehlani isn’t hitting the stage alone, either! She’s bringing along a stacked and incredibly talented lineup of supporting acts, including Durand Bernarr, Isaia Huron, TheARTI$t, and Waseel.
The massive tour announcement comes at a major high point in Kehlani’s career. Just last month, they dropped their highly praised self-titled album, Kehlani, right on their birthday. The project has quickly become a defining R&B release of the year—both commercially and critically—cementing Kehlani’s evolution as one of the genre’s most respected and dominant voices.

Kehlani released their highly anticipated self-titled album, Kehlani, on April 24, 2026, which also marked their birthday. The release felt symbolic for many fans, as the album represented a new chapter creatively and personally.
Containing 17 songs, the album blended classic R&B influences with modern production while also showcasing elements of soul, hip-hop, funk, and alternative sounds. Listeners immediately praised the project for its cohesive feel and emotional depth.
The album also featured an impressive cast of collaborators. Hip-hop legends Clipse appeared on one track, while Lil Wayne brought his signature charisma to another standout moment on the project. Leon Thomas, who has become one of the hottest names in modern R&B production and songwriting, also contributed to the album.
Meanwhile, major names like Big Sean, Cardi B, Usher, and Brandy added even more star power to the already stacked release. Fans especially appreciated how the features never overshadowed Kehlani themselves. Instead, each collaboration felt intentional and helped elevate the album’s storytelling and atmosphere.
Leading the album was the Grammy-winning single “Folded,” which quickly became one of the defining R&B songs of 2026. The record connected deeply with listeners due to its emotional lyrics, smooth production, and Kehlani’s passionate vocal performance.
Soon after its release, “Folded” exploded across streaming platforms, TikTok, and radio. Fans began using lyrics from the song in captions and videos, while live acoustic performances of the track also gained millions of views online.
The song ultimately earned Kehlani Grammy wins earlier this year, marking one of the biggest achievements of their career so far. Winning Grammy recognition further solidified Kehlani’s standing as one of the premier voices in contemporary R&B.
