New Houston album release planned
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 8 June 2009
A new album from Whitney Houston is due out on 31 Aug, according to reports. The new record, the pop singer’s first LP in seven years, is yet to be titled, and is apparently being jointly produced by Akon and the aforementioned Will.i.am. Houston has, of course, in recent years, more usually made the headlines for her drug problems and troubled marriage to, and divorce from, Bobby Brown, but the 45 year old star recently performed at a pre-Grammy party, and presented a prize at the award ceremony. Her last album, ‘Just Whitney’, failed to chart in the UK, so it remains to be seen whether the power of Akon, Will.i.am and enough marketing will win listeners over.
