Brown's new tour, "The 11:11 Tour," will feature 26 stops, including one in Philadelphia.

The tour will hit the Wells Fargo Center on Saturday, June 29.

A special guest will soon be announced for the Philadelphia concert at a later date.

According to organizers, The 11:11 Tour celebrates the release of Brown’s 11th studio album of the same name, which secured a No. 1 spot on the Billboard’s R&B Albums chart.

The track "Summer Too Hot" earned a nomination at this year’s Grammy Awards.

Brown in 2009 pleaded guilty to a felony assault charge that was filed after he attacked Rihanna earlier that year. He was sentenced to one year of domestic violence counseling and six months of community service.
