Jhene Aiko is bringing Willow Smith, Kodie Shane, St. Beauty and Kitty Cash as openers.

Jhene Aiko has been working her whole life to be at the position she is now. She's worked with various people in music since she was a young girl and eventually blossomed into this incredible artist that we know and love today. However, it was only a few weeks a go that she released her latest album Trip which was also accompanied by a short film. Along with that, the project as a whole is supposed to include a book of poetry. She's been busy with everything that has to do with the album. However, now that the majority of it is out for public consumption, she'll be taking the project on the road with her for her upcoming tour.

Jhene Aiko hit social media to announce that she'll be taking her latest album on the road. Between mid-November until the end of the year, Aiko will be travelling through North America to deliver the live experience of Trip. The tour is set to start on November 14th in Detroit before ending in Honolulu, Hawaii on December 27th. She's also bringing a slew of artists along with her for the ride. Aside from Jhene Aiko, you could catch Willow Smith, Kodie Shane, St. Beauty and Kitty Cash on the TRIP tour. However, only some dates will include either Kodie Shane or Kitty Cash. The tour will also be hitting some major cities along the way such as New York City, Los Angeles and Atlanta, among others. The songstress will also be making a few stops in Canada. She'll be in Toronto on November 19th before hitting Vancouver on December 8th. Jhene Aiko took an innovative approach to her project so it's exciting to see what she'll do on her tour. 

Aside from her own upcoming tour, Jhene Aiko already has big plans for 2018. Lana Del Rey recently announced her upcoming 2018 tour "LA To the Moon" which will have Jhene Aiko as an opener along with Kali Uchis.

In other Jhene Aiko related news, last week she finalized her divorce with Dot Da Genius and six days later, she tattooed a portrait of her current boyfriend, Big Sean on the back of her arm. As you could only assume, Twitter went crazy over it.
