The folks over at Plug Research must be geeked.
Second maybe only to D’angelo, Bilal has been the most anticipated vocalist of our generation. Now the wait is finally over. Billboard reports that Bilal is readying a genre-melding official follow up to First Born Second since his second album Love For Sale got indefinitely shelved by Interscope (ya big dummies!!!)
“Bilal hasn’t put out an official album since 2001’s “1st Born Second,” but fans can rest assured that new solo material is on the way. The R&B singer is almost done recording his next album, he tells Billboard.com, and it’s slated for release in the first quarter of next year on the indie label Plug Research.”
It is already confirmed that Bilal has been working with Shafiq Husayn and Nottz for his Plug Research debut, scheduled to drop early 2010.
