Jennifer Hudson Stuns In ‘Angeleno’ / Dishes On New Album

Published: Wednesday 28th Aug 2013 by Sam

Cop a gander of Jennifer Hudson!

The vocal powerhouse oozes silent confidence on the cover of the September issue of Angeleno – a modern luxury magazine.

Lensed by noted photographers Gomillion and Leupold, the stunning shoot sees the American Idol graduate ad Dreamgirls star strike many a diva pose.

Equally as engaging is the 31-year-old’s revelation surrounding her third studio album – details of which await after the jump…

Speaking in the spread’s accompanying interview, the mother of one revealed that the follow-up to 2011’s ‘I Remember Me’ is on course for an Early 2014 release.

Interestingly, the meat of the project has been cooked up in Manhattan with hitmakers Pharrell Williams and Timbaland, while Hudson describes its overall sound as “upbeat”. Of the action-packed studio sessions, the singer said:

“What we’re doing feels so right that I never want to go home (from the studio). My sister and my manager will be sleeping on the coach while we work until 4 or 5am.

This record is not about me playing a part or me as spokesperson. Should I give away the title? Let’s just say you’re gonna get Jennifer-ized.”

For those more moved by the songbird’s ballad efforts, she promises the record will boast heartfelt moments too. Of one deeply personal track ‘Moan’, she says of its inspiration “my mom always used to say that if you moan, it’ll make you feel better”.

************

 As keen appreciators of J.Hud’s talent, we’re waiting on that body of work that’ll really make a statement. Here’s hoping it’s this project.

Tidbit: If the LP is due at the top of next year, we should be hearing new material before the year’s end. Exciting times.

    you can tell JHUD slays in her own right….
    for someone who doesnt have any current music
    but still able to out perform those who do
    by booking performances at Grammys; superbowl
    oscars; VMA’s etc…

    five stars

  6. FAF August 28, 2013

  7. Rosie August 28, 2013

  9. SLAY_HIVE August 28, 2013

    Love her voice and cant wait for nee music BUT is EVERYBODY workimg with the same two producers?? Tired!

    • Iconic cici August 28, 2013

      Tired like beyonces whole career.

      • SLAY_HIVE August 28, 2013

        If Beyonce’s “iconic” career is tired….what is Cerror’s…… Extinct?? Kiiiii

  10. channel_ROMAN August 28, 2013

    YASS Jennifer. It seems she really likes dark and eggplant colors. Her last album was a great can’t wait for the next.

  11. Bow Down. B da queen August 28, 2013

    wait, so you all ike getting yelled at…tired, I have no money to b getting my ears fixed after listening to her sing. bye

    • ADC143 August 29, 2013

      Don’t get mad at Jennifer because she has the talent to measure up to the title ‘singer.’ She can “yell” at me all day, because I know it’ll be melodic and in tune.

      • FAF August 29, 2013

        You really can’t talk because when beyonce sings a lot of people talk about her intense vocal strain.. go listen to “I care” and how much she’s growling… One of the names ppl who dislike her give her is ScreamOnce

      • KENDRICK LAMAR STAN August 29, 2013

        GROWLING =/= STRAINING. BUT THEN AGAIN U STAN FOR CIARA WHO HAS ZERO VOCAL TALENT

  12. QueenCeline August 29, 2013

    Jennifer does need to tone it down a notches. Sometimes her belts turn into yells and it takes away from the song’s melody and emotion.

  13. KENDRICK LAMAR STAN August 29, 2013

    Her voice isn’t appealing…that’s why no one buys her albums.

    • Ebb September 28, 2013

      Actually people do buy her albums! Be gone

  14. Bow Down. B da queen August 29, 2013

    love how she has one eye covered, hense satanic illuminati. there is no denyig what she did for this fame. Kanye already admitted his mom was sacrificed for his fame, it’s time JHud did the same thing.

    • GoldenBoy J August 30, 2013

      you’re disgusting

  15. how to how can i stop my next door neighbours dog barking August 16, 2014

    re dog is barking at seemingly nothing, there may be
    other health related issues that need a Veterinarian. One
    day I went as usual to my friend’s place to go out and walk his Rottweiler dog.
    There are newer inventions with regard to dog training collars
    that are being introduced everyday to help to stop dog barking.
