The year may nearly be half over, but it looks like R&B vet R. Kelly is just getting started.

Still very much in promo mode for his acclaimed 12th studio album ‘Black Panties’ (2013) via a Tamar Braxton-assisted North American tour, Kellz is still putting in studio work to ensure his 2014 is as fruitful as ever.  Now unveiling news of a greatest hits album filled with over 20 years of hits and exclusive remixes, the project will lead the ‘Half On A Baby’ hitmaker into the latter half of 2014 where he is set to release two more albums.

If you are in need of an R. Kelly fix, we’re certain the remainder of the year will have you on the verge of overdose.

solange-2014

For most artists, a six-year gap between albums would be unthinkable. Yet for soul-filled songbird Solange it’s only increased anticipation.

The 27-year-old’s last full-length LP, ‘Sol-Angel & The Hadley Street Dreams’, saw her shed the “sister of a superstar” tag and command critical acclaim of her own. Naturally, buzz for a follow-up has continued to gain momentum, and reached fever-pitch when the singer released taster EP ‘True’ in 2012.

Now, after signing with Columbia Records, it appears the star is ready to unwrap her third full-length album.
