Erykah Badu will traverse North America next month for a six-week tour in support of her latest release, "New Amerykah, Pt. One: 4th World War."

The trek, set to launch May 4 in Detroit, will feature opening act The Roots for many of the dates.

The performers will visit U.S. cities from coast to coast, as well as a few Canadian provinces, and Badu will veer off for gigs in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean island of Aruba.
