Concert synopsis

The concert begins with Ledisi emerging onto a quadruple-layered LED platform in the center of the stage. She opens the show with "Keep U in Mind". Before the start of "I [Need to Know (Ledisi song)|I Need to Know]", Ledisi returned to the top of platform and performs the song with the microphone held a microphone stand. She remains on the platform throughout the performance of "7 Days of Weak" as red LED lights are surrounding her. She steps off of the platform for the song "Daydreaming".
During the tribute segment, Ledisi is joined by her band in a stationary seated performance. She began by performing "Maze Featuring [Frankie Beverly (album)|Happy Feelings]", a tribute to Frankie Beverly who died in September 2024, respectively.

She closed the show with "Anything for You", followed by "I Blame You" before exiting the stage.

Critical reception

Martin Tsai of New Jersey Arts remarked that "what stood out from her set were the extended ad-libs that you didn't get on the records, which drove fans wild." Brian Lumley of the Cleveland Scene, who attended the House of Blues show, praised Ambrosius' performance by stating, "Rarely has an opening act received as much applause from the attendees, but Marsha Ambrosius pulled as many cheers as headliner Ledisi did an hour later." Zaria Mac of The St. Louis American wrote "Though singing live, her voice perfectly matched the record. She sang in tandem with the audience, getting lost in her signature runs as she moved along the edge of the stage."
