R&B chicks are getting ready to unveil their new music. Here, we have the official single covers for Cassie's 'Official Girl', Keri Hilson's 'Energy', Jennifer Hudson's 'Spotlight' and The Pussycat Doll's 'When I Grow Up':
Jennifer's song is written and co-produced by Ne-yo and produced by Stargate and will hit radio airwaves on June 9th via Arista Records and will be released digitally (iTunes) on June 10th. Coincidentally or maybe not, someone may have came over to Toya's World on May 5th and decided they liked the pic I used when her song All Dressed Up In Love, from the Sex & The City soundtrack leaked. I selected it from a photoshoot that was shot a while ago by Michael Thompson. I had no idea this was going to be the very pic used for her official lead single 'Spotlight'. Niiiiice. Her album is slated for a September release.
Jen has also spoken about the new album:
"Spotlight," which addresses insecurities within a relationship, is one of many stellar songs which showcases Hudson’s amazing powerhouse vocals. J. Hud worked with a whole list of writers and producers including Timbaland, Robin Thicke, The Underdogs, Diane Warren, Tricky Stewart and more.
"I'm beyond ecstatic about my new album," says Hudson. "I think people will be pleasantly surprised, because it shows a side of my work that no one has heard before. This album has a huge variety of sounds and one of my favorite songs is 'Spotlight' because it has this great infectious groove. This is completely new territory for me and I can’t wait for people to hear it."
Clive Davis, Chief Creative Officer, SonyBMG Worldwide states: "With Jennifer's debut album we will be introducing a major new recording star. She takes on every genre of music and makes each her own. She's pure and simple a great natural talent and her album will very excitingly reflect that."
Also, it looks like Energy WILL be Keri's lead single. As previously reported, the track will be released on iTunes on May 27th via Mosley Music/Interscope Records. The song was penned and produced by The Runawayz: Sam Watters, Wayne Wilkins, Louis Biancaniello & Rico Love – the same folks who produced and co-wriiten Leona Lewis's 'Take a Bow'. The cover art is taken from Keri's recent kick-ass Giuliano Bekor photoshoot.
The Pussycat Doll's new single 'When I Grow Up' will also be released on iTunes on May 27th via A&M/Interscope Records. The track, as we all know was produced by Rodney 'Darkchild' Jerkins and they will perform the song for the very first time later today on Jimmy Kimmel. Look out for it.
Cassie's single Official Girl is digitally released TODAY (May 20th) on iTunes via Atlantic Records, and is produced by Danja and co-written by The Clutch and Cassie. WHICH SONG HAS YOUR SUPPORT?
