K. Michelle‘s last studio album, ‘All Monsters are Human,’ may have been soaked in critical acclaim thanks to its Jazze Pha-produced R&B radio hit, ‘The Rain,’ but most of the promotion for the effort was washed once the award-winning singer unveiled she was hard at work on its Country music follow-up and other business ventures.

A year after ‘Monster’s arrival, Michelle’s Country opus has yet to line dance to shelves but she has finally lifted the lid on one of the many endeavors that’s been keeping her busy.

It’s been nearly 5 months since Ledisi dealt fans her last studio album, ‘The Wild Card‘ (click here to stream), but it appears the 13x GRAMMY nominee still has a few plays in hand from the critically acclaimed LP’s 15-song deck.

After winning at Urban A/C radio with its kickoff singles, ‘Where I Am’ and Anything for You’ (even nabbing a GRAMMY nod for the latter), the powerhouse singer has prepped the project’s fan favorite – ‘Same Love’ – for radio treatment as the next single.

“It don’t get no hotter than July / Baby I’m so happy I replied / Left our inhibitions at the door / We know exactly what we came here for,” she croons on the slow-burning track. “We ain’t really trying nothing new / I don’t really mind the déjà vu / History is better on repeat.”

After the #61 debut and peak of ZAYN‘s sophomore album on the Billboard 200, 2018’s ‘Icarus Falls,’ his fans were undoubtedly concerned about how its follow-up – ‘Nobody is Listening’ – would fare given it lacked even less promotion than its predecessor.

What’s more, his junior effort – announced just a week ahead of its January 15 released date – had garnered little buzz from the record-buying public at large by the time it arrived to digital shelves, a feat underscored by the nonperformance of its singles ‘Better’ (#89 Hot 100 Peak) and ‘Vibez’ (uncharted as of time reported).
