Solange Gears up for Sophomore Album!

Love Muffins, we all know that Solange Knowles is a R&B girl, but non-stop hitmaker Lil Wayne has pitched in to offer guaranteed gold status his rap expertise on her soon to be released SoL-AngeL and The Hadley Street Dreams. Cee- Lo Green (of Gnarles Barkley) is also apart of Solange’s project and apparently, for Solange this is great on so many levels- professionally and personally. “I literally had to beg Cee-Lo to listen to my music but once he did he signed on immediately,” Knowles said. “We wrote and recorded [the tracks] ‘T.O.N.Y’ and ‘Sandcastle Disco’ that same week.” Solange’s new album will include guest appearances from Bilal (”Cosmic Journey”), Floetry’s Marsha Ambrosius (”Wanna Go Back” ) and Estelle (”Same Song, Different Man”). Raphael Saddiq will be producing the album along with Soul Shock and Pharrell Williams, who put in work on the album’s first single “I Decided.”

The video for “I Decided,” will focus on pop culture from the 60’s, which is great -I’m just dying to see something creative!

   I remember “Solo Star”. It looks like she is concentrating on the music, judging from the people she is working with. I’ll check it out.

   I like the first single. I will have to here a little bit more before I go and grab the WHOLE album. I do however love a different style. Who knows she might win with this one.
