The tour has kicked off on 1st May in Stockton, CA, and her schedule till the end of the year, with some irregular dates lined up through November.

“Still Unforgettable,” a la mode studio album from Cole was released last September. It reached at No. 19 on The Billboard 200 chart and No. 8 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The album also brought down Cole two Grammy’s, one for Best Pop Traditional Album and another for Best Instrumental Accompanying Vocalist.

Cole, who was reportedly suffering from hepatitis C on last July, has allegedly been experiencing dialysis and awaiting a kidney transplant. As a result, the singer was forced to cancel her tour dates last fall after she was hospitalized.

    Although she is not a great singer, i love her music and now she is sick. I wish her the entire beast and pray to God for her steady recovery. Stars like here should be on the stage and not on the bed of hospital.
