The tour announcement comes as Brown prepares to release his 12th studio album, titled “BROWN”, marking a milestone in his more than two-decade career in the music industry.
The multi-platinum artist confirmed that the album is set to be released on 22 May 2026 through RCA Records. Alongside the announcement, he unveiled a new single, “Obvious”, offering an early indication of the project’s musical direction.
The track blends Brown’s signature melodic style with contemporary R&B production, and industry analysts expect it to perform strongly on urban radio in the coming months.
“BROWN” follows his previous album “11:11”, which explored a dual-themed concept and received commercial success. While details about the new album’s tracklist have not yet been revealed, Brown has suggested the project will take a more personal and refined approach.
The joint tour with Usher is expected to build on both artists’ long-standing influence in R&B, bringing together two of the genre’s most prominent performers for what could become one of the year’s biggest live music events.
