Nearly 7 years after earning his latest top 5 album on R&B charts, legendary singer-songwriter Babyface is aiming for a redo with his latest LP, ‘Girls Night Out.’

Released October 21, the project comes as his first under label home Capitol Records and was preceded to digital shelves by the #1 R&B hit ‘Keeps On Fallin’ with Ella Mai as well as the Kehlani-assisted ‘Seamless,’ the Queen Naija-assisted ‘Game Over,’ and the Baby Tate-enlisted ‘Don’t Even Think About It’ (as reported here).

Other notable names on the 13-track effort include Ari Lennox, Doechii, Sevyn Streeter, Muni Long, and others.

“Rather than just writing the songs, I collaborated with other producers and the artists themselves in terms of writing. It gave it a different experience and flavor, which allowed each artist to have their own thing. ‘Girls Night Out’ is really more about them than it is about me,” he said in a recent interview about the highly collaborative effort. “They’re very independent and have a good idea of who they are, and what they should say…If I’m pushing myself onto it, I don’t get them at all.”
