Kali Uchis, the Grammy-winning Colombian-American singer-songwriter, has once again captured the hearts of fans with her latest album, Sincerely, released on May 9, 2025. This deeply personal project marks a significant milestone in her career, blending soulful R&B, retro-pop, and introspective lyrics that explore themes of motherhood, grief, and self-discovery. Following the success of her 2024 album Orquídeas, which was named Billboard’s Latin Pop Album of the Year, Uchis is now embarking on her first headlining arena tour across North America, bringing her ethereal vocals and heartfelt storytelling to fans across 24 cities.
Sincerely is Uchis’ fifth studio album and her most vulnerable work to date. Unlike her previous albums, which often mixed playful, dance-driven tracks with Latin influences like reggaeton and bolero, this album takes a more introspective approach. Written as a series of letters to herself, her partner, her son, and the world, the album reflects Uchis’ recent life experiences, including the birth of her first child with rapper Don Toliver and the loss of her mother earlier this year.
The album’s 14 tracks, all written and executive-produced by Uchis, dive into themes of healing and resilience. Songs like “All I Can Say” and “ILYSMIH” showcase her signature dreamy, jazzy-R&B sound while drawing inspiration from 1950s and 1960s aesthetics. The track “Sunshine and Rain” features a poignant sample of her late mother’s voice, adding an emotional depth that resonates with listeners. Uchis has described the album as a “remedy” for her future self, a way to process grief and celebrate new beginnings.
“I was already deep on feelings, but becoming a mother has taken that up like seven notches,” Uchis shared in an interview with Yahoo. “This whole playlist reminds me of my mom’s old workout tapes.”[](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/kali-uchis-says-her-album-120000996.html)
The album debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, earning 62,000 units in its first week, marking Uchis’ biggest album debut worldwide. This achievement also made her the first female artist to secure a top 5 album on the Billboard 200 for three consecutive years: Red Moon in Venus (2023), Orquídeas (2024), and now Sincerely (2025).[](https://variety.com/2025/music/news/sleep-token-even-in-arcadia-kali-uchis-sincerely-charts-1236403403/)[](https://x.com/chartdata/status/1924588484288725112)
In support of Sincerely, Uchis announced her first headlining arena tour, “The Sincerely, Tour,” which kicks off on August 14, 2025, in Portland, Oregon, and wraps up on September 25 in Denver, Colorado. The 24-city tour includes stops at iconic venues like Madison Square Garden in New York, the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, and Ball Arena in Denver. Uchis will be joined by neo-soul band Thee Sacred Souls, an 11-piece group from San Diego, for all tour dates, promising a soulful and vibrant live experience.
What makes this tour particularly special is that Uchis will be joined by her partner, Don Toliver, and their young son. “Our son loves seeing the world and he loves music,” Uchis told Yahoo. “When I perform this album, it’s going to be so different from before.” This family-oriented approach adds a personal touch to the tour, reflecting the themes of love and connection central to Sincerely.[](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/kali-uchis-says-her-album-120000996.html)
Tickets for the tour went on sale in mid-May, with presale starting on May 14 and general sales on May 16 via KaliUchis.com. Prices vary by venue, with tickets for her Madison Square Garden show ranging from $79 to $355. Fans can also opt for VIP packages, including options like the Ultimate Onstage Photo and VIP Lounge Package, offering exclusive experiences for dedicated supporters.[](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/kali-uchis-sincerely-tour-tickets-212032502.html)
Uchis’ journey to this point has been marked by resilience and self-reliance. Raised in a Colombian-American household, she has always drawn from her cultural roots, blending R&B, Latin pop, and retro influences into a sound that’s distinctly her own. Her 2012 mixtape Drunken Babble introduced her raw talent, while albums like Isolation (2018) and Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios) (2020) solidified her as a genre-defying artist. Her 2024 album Orquídeas was a commercial and critical success, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and earning widespread acclaim.
Sincerely represents a new chapter, one shaped by profound life changes. The birth of her son in March 2024 and the loss of her mother earlier this year have deeply influenced her music. “I’m still on a healing journey,” Uchis told Variety. “I’m still grieving, I’m still mourning. It’s all very recent, and I’m trying to feel everything that I need to feel.”[](https://variety.com/2025/music/news/kali-uchis-industry-outcast-mother-death-birth-son-sincerely-album-1236389465/)
The album’s introspective tone has resonated with fans and critics alike. Pitchfork described it as delivering “candy-colored reveries and gossamer love-me-downs,” while The Wall Street Journal praised Uchis as “a master of atmosphere.” The album’s retro-pop sensibility, combined with Uchis’ emotive vocals, creates a timeless yet modern sound that appeals to a wide audience.[](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/music-reviews-morgan-wallen-kali-193010080.html)
Uchis’ influence extends beyond music. Her recent recognition as one of Marie Claire’s Power Moms, alongside figures like Deepika Padukone and Gabrielle Union, highlights her role as an inspiring figure for women and mothers. She has also been celebrated by peers, with Charli XCX declaring it a “Kali Uchis Summer” during her Coachella set earlier this year.[](https://ca.news.yahoo.com/kali-uchis-being-industry-outcast-150000930.html)
With over 4 million career album units sold in the U.S. and a growing global fanbase, Uchis continues to break barriers as a Latin artist in the mainstream music industry. Her ability to weave personal storytelling with universal themes has made her a standout voice in contemporary music.
As Uchis prepares for her tour and continues to promote Sincerely, fans are eager to see how her live performances will bring this emotional album to life. With her son and partner by her side, the tour promises to be a celebration of family, healing, and artistic growth.
