Towards the end of the year in 2011, 1/3 of Dirty Money, Kalenna Harper took her solo spotlight with a new track and viral video entitled, “Go To Work” (CLICK HERE), and she’s back with more hard-hitting material on “Black Matte Truck.”
The new track will be featured on Kalenna’s first digital album, Chamber of Diaries, with features from Wayne Wonder, Crystal Nicole, Maino, Rodney Jerkins, French Montana and more. You can expect to hear more from Kalenna with the release this February.
Earlier this week, Estelle held a blogger preview for her upcoming release, “All Of Me” in New York City. The singer played a few tracks from the album and also spoke about why she took a three year break, stating she was getting her mind right and falling in love with music again. Her friend and business partner John Legend was also in the house jamming to the songs and speaking about his work on a couple of the tracks.
A few songs stood out, but the Ne-Yo written “I’m Doing Me” had everyone moving. It features songbird and dancer Janelle Monae and is a definitely an anthem for those who walk to the beat of their own drum. Other features include the club banger “International” featuring Chris Brown and Trey Songz and the mellow John Legend written song, “Love The Way We Used To”. Overall the album sounds like a laid back ride, I can’t wait to hear it in full when it’s released on February 28th. Check out more photos below and her blog entry about the event HERE…
