Black Milk's 'CEREMONIAL' Comes Home: Detroit, Michigan Producer-Rapper Plays Saint Andrew's Hall on Thanksgiving Eve
Six months after his ninth solo album, the Detroit beatsmith headlines Saint Andrew's Hall on Nov. 25. Here's what's on the record and the bill.
Detroit, Michigan producer-rapper Black Milk is taking CEREMONIAL home. He headlines Saint Andrew's Hall on Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2026, the night before Thanksgiving, six months after the album dropped.
For an artist whose early production credits include Slum Village, it's a homecoming with a fresh record to back it up.
The show
JamBase lists the show at Saint Andrew's Hall, 431 E. Congress St., at 7 p.m., with tickets from $29.50 through Ticketmaster. No openers are listed yet, so Black Milk is the only name on the bill for now.
He has been on the road this year. LodgeRoom in Los Angeles marked his July 30 show sold out and billed him as "one of hip-hop's most acclaimed live acts," with tours across North America, Europe, Australia and Japan.
What CEREMONIAL is about
Released May 8, 2026, CEREMONIAL is a 12-track album that HotNewHipHop credits with guests BJ The Chicago Kid, Saba, Chris Sholar, Brandon Myster, Ian Fink, and Sasha Kashperko. LodgeRoom calls it his ninth solo album and says it blends hip-hop with funk, soul, jazz and electronic music.
Saba joins him on "OK...Nah," a single HotNewHipHop covered on April 24 and praised for its "silky smooth" jazz-leaning production. BJ The Chicago Kid and Chris Sholar close the album on "YOUIT (Truth Be Told)."
Legends Will Never Die gave the album 4 out of 5 and wrote that "his subject matter's more introspective than it is political this time around," calling it "a Ceremonial reflection of how far he's come as an artist." The blog also noted he left Mass Appeal Records before making it.
Two decades of Detroit sound
Born Curtis Eugene Cross, Black Milk built his name in Detroit behind the boards. According to Wikipedia, he helped produce a 2001 Slum Village compilation, formed B.R. Gunna with Young RJ and Fat Ray, who released Dirty District Vol. 2 in 2004, and handled most of the production on Elzhi's The Preface (2008).
His solo run stretches from Sound of the City, Vol. 1 (2005) through Album of the Year (2010), Fever (2018) and Everybody Good? (2023). Collaborations include Black & Brown! with Danny Brown (2011), the Random Axe trio with Sean Price and Guilty Simpson, and Food from the Gods with Fat Ray (2025). He is also set to produce Fat Ray's Food From the Gods II, per Legends Will Never Die.
