BY Calum SlingerlandPublished Mar 8, 2017

Brother Ali is set to deliver All the Beauty in This Whole Life for Rhymesayers Entertainment this May. Now, the MC has revealed an accompanying tour in support of the disc that will kick off around the release date.

Dubbed "The Own Light Tour," the trek will keep the rapper on the road for a little over a month, playing 22 dates in total in both Canada and the United States. Support on all dates will come from Rhymesayers labelmate Sa-Roc, Last Word and Sol Messiah.

As far as dates in the Great White North go, Brother Ali will first play Vancouver's Fortune Sound Club on May 9. He'll round out the tour with back-to-back evenings in Montreal and Toronto, playing Belmont on June 6 and Adelaide Hall on June 7, respectively.

Tickets for all dates go on sale Friday (March 10) at 10 a.m. local time and can be found here.

All the Beauty in This Whole Life arrives on May 5 via Rhymesayers. According to Reddit sleuths, Brother Ali will also celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Undisputed Truth with a 3xLP anniversary edition as part of Record Store Day 2017.
