R. Kelly Pushes Back “Black Panties” Album To December
He may have sent fans into a frenzy with his highly anticipated feature on Lady Gaga‘s newest tune ‘Do What U Want’ (available Monday, October 21), but that guest appearance will have to tide them over a little longer than previously thought.
Originally set to hit stores in November, Kelly’s team took to Twitter to announce his newest album ‘Black Panties’ won’t be enjoying those Black Friday sales and is now due for release in December.
Led by the cuts “Genius” and “My Story” featuring 2 Chainz, the album will be Kelly’s first since 2012’s ‘Write Me Back’.
