R&B group Jodeci inked a deal with Day After Day Productions (DADP) for their upcoming 36-city reunion tour marking the 35th anniversary of their 1991 hit album Forever My Lady. Scheduled to commence on October 24th at The Masonic in San Francisco, this extensive tour celebrates the groundbreaking success of Forever My Lady, which peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard 200 and introduced the No. 11 hit single "Come & Talk to Me."
Jodeci's discography includes 1993's Diary of a Mad Band, which reached the peak position of No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and brought along chart-toppers "Cry for You" and "Feenin’." Their third studio album, The Show, the After Party, the Hotel, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and featured the No. 14 hit "Freak You." In 1993, they collaborated on a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Lately," which soared to No. 4 on the Hot 100.
A year prior to the anniversary tour, Jodeci reunited once again, releasing the album The Past, the Present, the Future through Epic Records. To commemorate the 35th anniversary of Forever My Lady, UMG reissued the album on July 17, accompanied by an expanded vinyl edition. In a joint statement, K-Ci Hailey and Mr. Dalvin Khae, members of Jodeci, expressed their gratitude towards their fans, saying, "Thirty-five years ago, Forever My Lady changed our lives.
The love and connection we share with our fans is unmatched and this tour is for them—the people who stood by us from day one. Get ready, we’re going to leave everything on the stage for you."
Seth Shomes, the founder & CEO of Day After Day Productions, expressed his pride and honor of representing Jodeci and bringing their monumental tour to life. Shomes stated, "JODECI is the blueprint for modern R&B and they have influenced countless artists throughout their incredible career. We cannot wait for fans across the country to witness the electricity and magic of this tour."
