B.G.T.Y. Tour

The B.G.T.Y. (Be Good to Yourself) Tour was the second headlining tour by American singer Ledisi, in support of her fifth studio Pieces of Me (2011). The tour began in Hampton, Virginia on June 23 at the Hampton Jazz Festival and ended in Atlanta on August 5.

Background and development
In an interview with lifestyle magazine Essence, Ledisi announced the B.G.T.Y. (Be Good to Yourself) Tour. The tour began on June 23rd at the Hampton Jazz Festival in Hampton, Virginia. In April 2012, WTLC-FM offered a presale code for the show in Indianapolis on August 1, 2012. During each concert, Ledisi featured four different wardrobe outfits including a silver sequin mini-dress inspired by Tina Turner's dress in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.

Critical reception
Kenya Vaughn of The St. Louis American praised Ledisi for being able to get the audience to participate. Vaughn commented, "By the third song in at Ledisi’s set of her BGTY (Be Good To Yourself) Tour at the Pageant Friday night, she had the crowd of a thousand-plus in the palm of her hands. As the chorus commanded in her radio hit “Bravo,” Ledisi fans were obedient to say the least as they fervently clapped and their bodies throbbed to the pulsing track and infectious keyboard riff by St. Louis own Joshua Webb". She further praised the show by stating "Ledisi's presence in St. Louis was justified to say the least – and her performance evidence that she may finally be on her way to a warranted position of R&B diva/soul icon-in-training." Mary Colurso of Advance Local commented that "Her versatility was much on display, along with a warm personality. Between numbers, Ledisi exuded a “just friends” vibe, joking with the audience as if she were a homegirl, instead of a star on tour."

The Philadelphia Inquirer's Tanisha Alston wrote, "Dazzling in a silver sequined mini with the energy of a sultry Tina Turner, Ledisi presented a take-that! version (complete with megaphone) of "Shut Up" her musical ode to naysayers. As she sang the self-congratulatory lyrics of "Bravo," Ledisi stomped, shimmied, and shook her way across the stage, prompting the audience to join in repeating her self-affirming chant, "I'm winning every day."
