Tonight marks the finale of Kelly Rowland‘s BET talent-search ‘Chasing Destiny.’

The 10-episode show saw the solo Grammy winner – together with creative director Frank Gatson – piece together (what is hoped will be) music’s next big girl group.

Their name has yet to be revealed, but they have released an official buzz track. It’s not “the” lead single, but serves a solid indicator of their sound.

Take a listen to the cut – ‘All Of Us’ – below…

Janet Jackson soared to chart glory with ‘Unbreakable’ – her first album in seven years.

The ‘No Sleeep’ led set arrived last October and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200.

Still, the “era” hasn’t been entirely smooth sailing. Indeed, despite spawning a successful tour, several dates had to be postponed – first due to ill health and later due to the star’s reported pregnancy.

It’s led some to ponder whether Jackson will embark on another music project.

Fret not, because in the latest issue of Emirates Magazine (which she covers and poses for), the singer’s longtime producer and friend Jimmy Jam promises that’s there’s more magic to come.
