R. Kelly's new CD, Write Me Back, will be released on 25
June. This will be his 11th studio album. “Share My Love,” the album’s first
single, recently grabbed the #1 spot at Urban Adult radio. Kelly’s newly
released second single, “Feelin’ Single,” is described Prefixmag.com as
“classic Kelly, full of infectious hooks and buttery smooth grooves”. Write Me
Back is the follow up to 2010’s critically acclaimed Love Letter, which
celebrated the music of the 50s and 60s.
The new album represents the natural progression of Kelly’s musical time
machine, recalling the sultry and seductive sounds associated with such icons
as Barry White, Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass, among others. Like its Love
Letter predecessor, Write Me Back is also a celebration of love. From classic
R&B to hip-hop, inspirational to gospel, no other artist has covered the
vast array of human emotions more than R. Kelly. With a track record that
boasts over 40 million albums sold worldwide, 6 #1 albums, 11 #1 singles, 3
Grammy Awards, 8 Soul Train Awards, 6 American Music Awards and 6 Billboard
Music Awards, R. Kelly has rightfully earned his title as the undisputed “King
of R&B.” In 2011, Billboard named R. Kelly the #1 most successful R&B
artists of the last 25 years! When not in the spotlight, Kelly has written and
produced hit songs for Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Celine Dion, Jennifer
Hudson, Maxwell, Britney Spears and countless others. More recently, Kelly was
tapped to write and produce original music for the upcoming Sparkle soundtrack.
