By all accounts, Jennifer Hudson’s third studio album is shaping up to be quite the masterpiece.
Enlisting the likes of Red One and Salaam Remi to help craft it, we had hoped the project would see her birth a Jill Scott meets Paloma Faith esque piece that would see her strike Adult Contemporary ground, winning over an older (and far more loyal) audience while doing so.
However, it appears the release will see the Oscar nabbing Grammy winner strike a healthy balance between Dance and Soul. Well, that is if her brand new effort ‘I Can’t Describe The Way I Feel’ is anything to go by.

As fellow R&B songstresses Keke Wyatt and Tweet boogied through the night, the evening brought with it a colorful homage to the 80s/90s while JHud celebrated her 32nd bday.
