A number of songs selected for the concert set list, along with corresponding imagery depicted on stage, address racism, white supremacy, homophobia, fascism, xenophobia, domestic violence, and police brutality. The tour was advertised on social media with socially conscious lyrics quoted from studio albums Rhythm Nation 1814, Janet (1993), The Velvet Rope (1997) and Unbreakable. The revised name of the tour is taken from her 1991 single " State of the World", released from her fourth studio album Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 (1989). The theme of the tour was altered to reflect socially conscious messages from Jackson's entire music catalog. Tickets originally purchased for the Unbreakable World Tour were honored with new concert dates under the revamped State of the World Tour. Announced in May 2017 as a 56-city North American trek visiting the United States and Canada, it is a continuation of the Unbreakable World Tour, which was postponed in 2016 due to Jackson's pregnancy. Launched in promotion of her eleventh studio album Unbreakable (2015), the tour is produced by Live Nation and is under the creative direction of Gil Duldulao. The State of the World Tour was the eighth concert tour by American singer Janet Jackson.
