Grammy-award-winning musician Wizkidis sharing his latest album and presence with North American and Europe fans this year, as the star announced a slew of new dates and locations this week. The Nigerian superstar's fifth studio album, More Love, Less Egohas been granted a world tour by the same name and lands this fall via American heavyweights Live Nation. The tour was originally slated to kick off in March, but the singer had to postpone due to "unforeseen circumstances".


Seventeen North American dates and locations will take the singer-songwriter to fans from Vancouver, British Columbia, to Brooklyn, New York from November 2 to 30. Wizkid's newly released European dates see the singer set his sights on London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on July 29, Denmark's Royal Arena on October 5, and more throughout the month. Last year, the singer canceled his tour two days before it was due to start.

Wizkid is due to perform at and headline Day 2 of Afro Nation's inaugural stateside festival in Miami at the end of May, the week that American record producer Swizz Beatzattempted to take credit for the singer's astronomical success among the North American soundwaves -- however, his trusted fans were sure to put that to bed. The creative machine has already teased the title of his next project, SeiLessahead of his approaching busy summer schedule.

North Americans have the opportunity to purchase General on-sale tickets from May, 5th at 10 am E.S.T, while tickets to the European leg go on sale on May, 15th at 10 am, too. All tickets are available via Wizkidofficial.com.
