Eminem will release his sixth studio LP Relapse later this year.

  1. Me too

    Go sisterhood. I love that the family is so close.

  2. Ms. Kim

    I dont care about Eminem. Good to see Beyonce and her sister working together that’s cute

  3. Truthfully Speaking

    110 date tour?….She’s workin hard for her money, ha!

    When Live your Life, 1st came out I was excited for a video…But now that they’ve ran the song into the dirt on the radio, I’m not the least bit interested in seeing a video(I can barely stand to hear it anymore)

    Its about time Mr Mathers came back, can’t wait to hear his new stuff :)

  4. Quiche-A

    One concert I can’t wait for! Get it girls!

  5. Fran Gadson

    Quote – Reports suggest that following the main show with Beyonce, fans will have access to an official after-party where they can see Solange perform at a smaller venue.

    What – why not share the same stage with her own sister

  6. studentdoc11

    This tour with Beyonce and Solange is a good idea for Solange, but I can’t help wondering if Michelle is going to even tour around the block. I mean her album finally came out after a pushback, and she’s on her second video yet I haven’t seen any of her videos on BET or MTV and Beyonce’s two singles are on those stations right now as well as playing on the radio. I bought Michelle’s album and it’s really techno pop sounding, but it’s a great album for making you feel upbeat and in a dancing mood.
    Anyway, good luck on the tour ladies…….

  7. MOMMAROOSA

    UGH NO MORE EMINEM PLEASEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    NOTE TO BEY… IF YOU’D LIKE TO SELL A SUCCESSFUL AMOUNT OF TICKS DROP SOLANGE FROM THE TOUR ASAP!!!
    IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME FOR DAT T.I. AND RHI RHI VID, TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK?

  8. uptowngirl

    I thought Solange was trying to get out of Beyonce’s shadow? Didn’t she say something like don’t associate her w/her sister or her brother in-law in some interview? So then why tour together?

  9. D@ Pop3

    I CANT WAIT…I LOVE SOLANGE CD…AND I KNOW FOR A FACT BEYONCE CD IS GOING 2 BE THE SHIT….

  10. lisa

  12. BRWNCRAYOLA

    I would def love to fly out to Vegas to see them! Hopefull they’ll add more US stops to their tour dates! I know Beyonce said they have a song together on her album coming out in November. Can’t wait to hear that! Bee so fly, I don’t even mind the throw back braid in her hair.

  13. trinib

    Beyonce have a new album??? shoot I thought Single Girls was just an extension of the last album…sounds the same
    Eminem coming back..yeah…live my life….yeah-a yeah-a yeah-a

  14. OB4PRES

    Can’t wait to see that TI& RIRI video.. Em coming back, I was never a fan but I wonder if he is going to get those mili numbers..

  15. Like Em Dark and Slim

    Look out “B”! Lil sis is getting sexier than you everyday!

  16. Aries

    I was much more excited about the “news” that Beyonce n Jay Z were going to be touring together lol. But it doesnt matter whos touring with Beyonce, im still going to see her! I mised her 2 years ago.

  17. Gabrielle Isra

    Beyonce & Solange on Tour.

    Keep it all in the family, I guess. It would be interesting, Solange’s CD is really good. She’s blessed to have the opportunity to go on a 110-date world tour. Why wouldn’t they throw in Michelle and/or Kelly as well … more likely Michelle since her album is more recent? Or headline both Beyonce, Alicia Keys, & Chrisette Michele and call it the “I Am” Tour.

    T.I. & Rihanna’s video looks interesting. Didn’t think a music video needed a preview though. And Eminem? He’s talented enough to make a comeback, but not if he continues rapping about killing people and dissing pop stars. But we’ll see.

  18. Like Em Dark and Slim

    @BASSACKWARDS Please describe yourself to me….

  19. Tate

    I love Solange and all…but after the Fox debacle…and not wanting to be tied in to the Knowles-Carter “establishment” Im surprised that she would even jump on this…I guess her album sales forced her to eat a slice of humble pie…I love them both…and Im sure, I’ll be at the concert

  20. if you cant beat them,,,, join them … go solo nice move …i hope two ego sisters together one with a big head and the other with no head…. hope this works lol….sometimes family is the worst to work with …. especially two big egos..trust

  21. Corey

    GO Bey! Keeping the money in the family! I hope Solange can hang this A LOT OF DATES to perform can be a MAJOR strain on both voices! Beyonce can do it, The Experince was Crazy GOOD! Eniemem – NOT Interested, Seriously with TI and Lil Wayne and Jay Z the game is in a choke hold! Video LOOKS Crazy! Cant Wait- SO live your Life AYE AYE AYE!!

  22. Aries

    AND also lol. Im a fan of Solange CD! But what happened to her “I am ME” motto? the “please dont associate me with my sister” BUT NOW she can go on a full tour with her sister? n be in loreal commercials with her? Come on Solange one or the other.

  23. Yaaaay! Eminem is back. Dude is dope as hell, so I’m excited.

    Not interested in the TI/Rihanna video (or song for that matter). Her voice annoys me to NO end on that track.

    Soooo. Beyonce will be commanding the BIG stage, while you have to see Solange AFTER the fact at a SMALLER venue. Am I understanding that correctly

  24. Miss Pearl

    She claims to get pissed whenever people associate her ass with Beyonce, but she don’t mind pimpin Bey when she realizes that she NEEDS her, right? When she went on Tyra to promote HER album, after she went off on TV about being asked about Bey, why was Beyonce on a screen being interviewed WITH her the whole time? (Because she isn’t big enough to get Tyra by HERSELF)

    Why does L’Oreal have a new commercial with Bey (who has the contract with them) but SOLANGE’s song is playing in the background and what? SOLANGE pops up in the commercial too?

    Now she’s going on tour with Bey? Please, I knew all that, “I’m not Beyonce’, I don’t want to be associated with her!” crap was BS. You don’t want to be associated with Beyonce, yet you use her name and popularity at every chance? I’m all for keeping it in the family – I’m just not too pleased when you don’t keep it REAL!

  25. Miss Pearl

    @ Aries (#23) – I wish I’d read your comment before I made mine. LOL

  26. yoruba

    Uhm, not to go completely off topic here BUT you said such countries as Canada, Europe, Mexico, South America, Japan, Africa etc….. Europe, Africa and South America are def not countries. Thank you. :-)

    Will def go see them if they come round my way. Shame that Sol-Angel is going to be in the shadow though. ( I mean, official after party?)

  27. GUEST

    FIRST OFF CL EUROPE AND AFRICA ARE NOT COUNTRIES THERE CONTINENTS LETS NOT REINFORCE STEREOTYPES!!!!!!!!!!!!

  28. What's Love

    This has got to be the most obvious assualt on anyone with a brain (not talking to you stans, as you eat up whatever the Knowles serves your dumb azzes up)

    You go OFF on a newscaster, make statements about not being associated with your sister, now they are touring together. They think the whole world is their IDIOT stans, I will not patronize EITHER, they have lied too much to be taken at their word. And for my support, you must be real, I can lie to myself, don’t need to pay someone to do that to me or treat me like I don’t have a brain. F the Knowles.

  29. *****Dame (It's Bee season)

    Soooooo Bee and Solo touring together I knew it was going to happen I am not surprised.

    Em I can’t wait

  30. Shana

    Why is Bey rocking that corn row style from the 70′s? Not cute, but at least it’s not her usual Lion King weave. Anyway, at the end of the day, Bey is gonna support her biological sister, not the ones she”calls” sisters, so taking Solange on tour is only natural. No need to bring Kelly and Michelle along, since the folks aren’t really gonna be paying to see them anyway. Oh well.

  31. Tiff

    Just because solo didnt want to be compared to her sister doesnt mean she hates her jeez people grow a brain..you obviously have no siblings…she got mad at fox because they were bad talking her bro in law not because she was being asked about bey…NE ways Im excited about them touring together if it is true..I think it is an awesome idea

  32. clear

    bey & solo dont care , EM I’m glad he is comin back out lookin foward to it , T.I & RIRI I’ve been waitin for this video about time an it look like its goin to be hot to , it look like a good story line that whats up

  33. DIAMOND

    Eminem?! yay!! My faue rapper. I just download Bey’s IIWAB on itunes. She was No. 2!! Go Solange!

  34. Big M

    @#24 (complexndope) I thought the same thing about the Bee & Sol tour. You would have thought Sol would open, but not be reduced to an afterparty venue like some small town, no name club act.

    I can’t agree with you on the Eminem though, no missing him at all : )

    Wishing you well with impending motherhood.

  35. KMBPYT

    I can’t wait to see that Ti and Rihanna video! I am so happy that Em is coming back he has been gone for a while..

  36. Mrs.Sk8board P

    i can’t wait…B and Solo…it’s gonna be a good show…
    T.I. video looks interesting…can’t wait to see the whole thing
    Eminem…did we really even miss him??..keep it real…he iight though..shud be an interesting “come back”..

  37. YEAH, I SAID IT!

    I’ve never heard of a tour where you have 2 artists featured on the bill but only one performs on the “main stage”. I have seen one perform and the other close out but this seems weird to me. I’m not sure that Solange being cast off to some secondary obscure stage where people will have to gain access to AFTER the Beyonce show is going to be a power move for her…

  38. bassackwards

    @Like Em Dark and Slim, 6ft tall, curvy but slim

  39. Beyonce Forever

    I think thats cool that they will tour together. I wonder if they will have any fights??? Prolly not. Great way to keep it in the family. So is Solange going to be the opening act or just at a venue after the concert?

  40. Brittany

    Beyonce and Solange are both fake. What happened to Solange not wanting to be associated with her sister, but now she’s joining her on tour. Then Beyonce wanted to keep her relationship with Jay-Z private, but as soon as she has an album to promote, she’s talking about it.

  41. UrbanChic

    I like the Knowles because they work a family business. That’s how its suppose to be. I can’t wait to see them together on stage.

  42. Ms Stacy

    Can’t wait to see Bey … Solo I could miss but Bey I am not missing for the world !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  43. I think the idea of having Solange perform at a smaller venue is brilliant! Those type of shows make the connection between the artist and the fans more intimate.

    I definitely want to go for sure. I had a BLAST at the Beyonce Experience Tour.

  44. Like Em Dark and Slim

    @BASSACKWARDS I see. Supermodel type! Too bad we cant ad avatars at this minute. I ‘d love to see! Are you light, brown or dark?

  45. 8baller

    Bey and Solo….ok that should be hot.

    I’ve missed Eminem, glad he is back.

  46. Meat

    They should record some songs together before the tour! Can you imagine both of them on stage together…Bey singing and Sol dancing? They will own the music world for 2009.

    Now ladies, just go in the studio with Rihanna, D’Angelo, Anthony Hamilton and Missy (but don’t let her rap).

  47. LaMarr

    I am trying to see her myself also, loved the dvd of the last concert.

  48. Change- verb,to change one's opinions or intentions

    I like the sisters tour, who else can do that but the pair? lol.. some of these comments are just plain evil and non-sensical…

    I like T.I. and Rihanna is alright…. but I don’t watch videos unless they post them here so whatever..lol.. I’ll see it when I see it

    Eminem …. now that is one of the GOAT’s! “nowadays eveyone act like they got something to say they move their lips but nothing comes out” lol…

  49. Beyonce Forever

    ALso….Am I the only one not that excited about EMINEM coming back. I mean he cud rap….but Im jus not that trilled.

    And the only reason I want to see the video is because I love the way Riri dresses. Im sorry, but rap videos are soooooo damn boring. And altho I love the song, I know if not for rihanna, I wouldn’t care about the video

  53. B

    yeah they look out for family but screw everyone else—that’s great–what idiots you all are. Keep enriching them withe their substandard offerings, and the nerve of Beyonce to shout outthat horrid line in her whack song. And show her ‘private’ ring, Im not a fool and won’t be treated like one because someone is ‘pretty’. So much for all that daddy talk Kelly did, damn Kelly they treated you like doo doo I sure hope that man aint really your daddy, you had the top selling recored with Nelly but didnt get diddly squat, Solo ain’t got shit, yet she has Loreal, Armani..so much for ‘like family’ and you stans get the shaft too. Fools, thank goodness they don’t need my money, cause they sho nuff wouldn’t get it!

  56. Lena

    Solo on tour with Bey? Can anyone say corny as hell?? Good lawd. That’s a sign Bey CD is about to flop just like her little arrogant, no talented sister.

    Rihanna and T.I now that looks like something I want to see. Rihanna is definitely the hottest chick right now, and T.I. knows it. Maybe Jay suggested Rih to him for that video. He seems to be repping hard for Bey’s enemy while Bey is struggling to get her swag back. hmmmmmmmmm.

  57. wow, L. has sum major issues wit B.
    ur just makin’ her bigga than she already is buddy.
    hater’sz make celeb even greater cuz thas all they talk abt 24/7.
    anywho,
    a Beyonce’ and Solo tour sounds great.
    Solo’s album was soo GOOD
    && i absolutely luved it,
    the gurl has talent.
    the swagga is totally different from B’s.
    However i’m confused as to why she wants to tour with Beyonce,
    cuz she always talkin’ abt bein’ independent
    && she’s not her sister.
    if you get the chance,
    listen to “God Given Name”
    that explains the whole Beyonce shadow thing she doesn’t want to be.
    other than that,
    imma go to that tour cuz i kno B’s album is gonna be FiyA.!!!!!!

    T.I. i can’t wait for that vid,
    cuz thas one of the best songs on the album, fa sho.

    E,
    i’ve missed ya like HELL.!!
    i thought you retired,
    but its good to hear that comin’ back.

  58. Dontb2good

    For everyone that is commenting on Beyonce performing on the main stage and having to see Solange after I think that is only talking about the time they are in Vegas not the whole tour. Correct me if i’m wrong. I def going to Vegas to see this show.

  59. Dontb2good

    Oh and who cares about her wanting to distance herself. Let the girl make some money LORD. But I do think they should add Michelle to the mix,
