Queen Latifah will be stopping through Dallas on September 29 to launch the tour supporting her upcoming album, Trav'lin' Light. The new album is a departure from the rapping Queen of yore, featuring jazz standards. The show set for the Majestic Theatre is titled "Harmony in the House" and will benefit Dallas' Family Place domestic violence shelter.
Tickets are not on sale yet, but according to Peppard, show sponsorships are and will run you anywhere from $500 to $15,000.
