30 Jul 2009 by Keisha	comments 0
After co-hosting listening parties in Los Angeles, New York and London, attended by such collaborators as Alicia Keys and Swizz Beats and celebrities including Martha Stewart and Diane Sawyer, Whitney Houston blasts back onto R&B/Hip-Hop Songs with "I Look to You" at No. 27. The ballad, penned by R. Kelly, also bows on Adult R&B (viewable at billboard.biz) at No. 23. The song is Houston's 41st entry on R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and first since "Try It on My Own" wrapped up a 14-week stay exactly six years ago this week. "I Look to You" instantly becomes Houston's highest-charting track since "Same Script, Different Cast," with Deborah Cox, peaked at No. 14 in 2000. The new single is the title cut to Houston's seventh studio album, due Monday, Aug. 31. Source: [www.billboard.com]

Whitney Houston was apprehensive about working with Akon
30 Jul 2009 by Keisha	comments 0
Whitney Houston has confessed that she was apprehensive about working with pop sensation Akon, when her mentor Clive Davis first suggested the collaboration. The I’m every woman hitmaker wanted to recreate her 1999 hit My Love Is Your Love, in which she worked with Wyclef Jean, but had reservations in regard of the Locked Up singer. "When Clive told me I would be working with Akon, I thought, ‘Hmm, interesting, um, all right’,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying. She said: "I wanted the record like My Love Is Your Love with an island feel. I wanted an island record because My Love Is Your Love is so huge and it has its own fashion with Wyclef. “I wanted that feeling, but I didn't know who could do that. And Clive came and said, 'Akon is the guy that we're going to work with.' And I was like, 'OK, Akon. OK, I can deal with that’." In fact the first meeting with the Lonely singer did not convince her that she could pull it off with him, but is now glad, that it worked out really well. She added: "I was asking him, 'Did your mother name you Akon?' And he said, 'No, it means a convict.' And I thought, 'Oh, God. OK, all right, I can handle that’.” “He's a gentleman. He did his work very well. We did it very quickly, very diligently, and I'm very proud of that record. It's a great record." Source: [sify.com]

Costner on Houston's New Album: 'I Knew This Day Was Coming'
29 Jul 2009 by Keisha	comments 0
"I knew this day was coming for her," he said. "Because she's too strong, too smart, too talented. And she has so much residual love out there that people have for her. And, you know, we see some of the greatest people we know sometimes have to struggle -- struggle so publicly. And she has. And she's had that ...period that she doesn't want to revisit, doesn't need to revisit. It's part of her." Legendary producer Clive Davis told "Good Morning America" that one song on the new album called "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" speaks to Houston's resilience. Costner also pointed to his former co-star's ability to bounce back. "Everybody who's watching, everybody who's done this business, we've all been broken a little bit," Costner said. "We've all been bruised. And life has taken, you know, some big bites out of all of us. But, you know, Whitney Houston has taken some big bites out of life. And we've all been the better for it." Houston will kick off "GMA's" Fall Concert Series in September. Stay tuned to "GMA" and [abcnews.com/gma] for more information." Source: [abcnews.go.com]

"It is so hard to express in words what Michael Jackson meant to me. He was my friend. He was one of the reasons I got into the music business. He inspired me. He taught me. He laughed with me. He paved the way for African American artists to be played on MTV which was huge. My heart is full of grief for his family and his children and I pray that they take solace in the incredible legacy of his music and art." source: whitneyhouston.com
