“Queen of Neo-Soul,” Erykah Badu, is coming to the Chicago Theatre for a night of music, grooves, and dancing. The Dallas born singer–songwriter, record producer, and actress is in the middle of her massive Mama’s Gun world tour, with stops that include New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London, Paris, Gydnia, Berlin, Milan, and Zurich. How’s that for a start? Her newest single with The Alchemist, “Next To You,” came out this year and timed nicely with the run. Be sure to check out one of her shows if she stops by your hometown. —Henry McGrath
