Bilal Announces Tour

4:30 p.m. · May 17, 2011 · by Andrew Martin

As I wrote in the post for the "Little One" video, Bilal wrote and recorded that track as a dedication to his son who is diagnosed with autism. The crooner also wanted to use the visuals as a means of raising awareness for the developmental disorder. But he wasn't done there. Bilal has announced the "Little One" tour, which aims to raise support for autism research. It begins July 22 in Alabama and takes him up the East Coast before he heads to South Africa for a pair of dates. From there, he has numerous shows lined up in the U.S., from Los Angeles to New York and almost every where in between.
