It’s been a rocky few years for Keyshia Cole. Indeed recent times have been characterized by problems in her personal and professional life.
However with a New Year on the horizon, so too is new opportunity for the R&B belter.
Redemption, it seems, has manifested for her in the form of a brand new record deal with LA Reid‘s Epic Records.
Details below…
Announcing the news on Instagram, Cole shared the following post and video…

Well 2016 is about to be over, ? AND IM PAST MY INTERNAL DEADLINE!!! I’m extremely anxious, and Extremely proud of My work, And ?% prepared for the world to hear this NEW project. I haven’t worked so hard on a album since back when I had that hunger, since this music thing was all I had. When it was the only way out! ?????⏳⌛️ I take Pride in saying I’m NOW APART OF THE EPIC FAMILY!!! And a GOAL that my EPIC fam and I mutually share is to take this Passion (I CANT BE WITHOUT) to new heights!

It would be the first accolade received ? ???????? God Has been so good, every time I find myself looking around for someone to turn to, he’s always there to Provide the answers I need.

The deal comes after she told That Grape Juice that she was seriously weighing up going indie after the underperformance of 2014’s ‘Point Of No Return.‘ A set that fulfilled her deal with then-label Interscope.
As for the new venture… congrats!
Say what folk will, but there’s no denying Keyshia has a proven track record and ample potential. And it appears there’s still some mileage in her career tank.
We’re buzzed for new her material. Are you?
