Blige, Sullivan to Appear at Fox Theatre, 10/15

Mary J. Blige and Jazmine Sullivan will team up once again, along with special guests the comeback king El DeBarge and newcomer Miguel, to hit the road for a fall trek with a stop at Detroit's Fox Theatre on Friday, Oct. 15 at 7:30 p.m.

Blige shared the news during her appearance on BET's "106 & Park, where she brought out Sullivan and Miguel and called the former "one of the most amazing female singers out right now in this generation...I love this girl's voice and spirit. Jazmine Sullivan is for real, and she's going on the road with me."

Sullivan is set to release her sophomore album Love Me Back in October, while El DeBarge is on the cusp of releasing Second Chance, his first album since 1994. Miguel is finishing up his debut, All I Want Is You, for release next year. His first single of the same title is currently No. 45 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
