On the Road Again With KEM: 'Album III' Debuts At #2, Returns Home for Tour Stop

Hello everyone! We celebrated a big first week of 'Intimacy' album sales last week. When the final numbers were finally released, the album was #2 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart and was the top-selling album that debuted last week. I have to thank you again for your support of the project, and I hope you're enjoying the album!

Also...a shout out to all the fans in Columbus, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and Philly...we had a great week on the Superfest. I really enjoying being back on the road and interacting with all of you...it's hard to believe there's only one week left on the tour.

The Columbus stop last week was actually just our show - not a part of the Superfest tour. Before the show, I visited Magic 98.9 - Columbus, Ohio's station for R&B and Classic Soul - and co-hosted the "KEM Intimacy Hour" with Warren Stevens. During the show we played some of my favorite classic soul songs including Anita Baker's 'Been So Long' - along with a few new songs from the 'Intimacy' album.

After the "KEM Intimacy Hour," Elizabeth, one of the station's listeners, came in the studio to meet me - she had won a contest for a meet & greet along with tickets to the show that night.Our hometown Detroit show was huge for us. I had two appearances scheduled during the day prior to the show. One was an interview on the morning news at Fox2 Detroit with Roop Raj, and the other was an autograph signing at Street Corner Music, a great shop that sells new and used music - including albums on vinyl.

That night, we played for a sold-out audience at the historic Fox Theater in downtown Detroit that included family, friends and fans who have been following my whole career. I would be nowhere without their love and support, and I appreciate each and every one of those people. It was an electric show in a spectacular venue that I know I'll never forget.

I've posting pictures on Twitter throughout the tour...you can check them out at www.twitter.com/KEM_Intimacy. Also don't forget to check out the official KEM Facebook page at www.facebook.com/KEMofficial and I'll see you back here next week! Until then...God Bless.
