We’re getting our first taste of R. Kelly’s upcoming album with the release of his new song “Backyard Party.”
Both the music and lyrics really get you in that weekend groove with, “Everyone’s happy. Finally it’s the weekend. All the hard work’s begind me. And I just invited all my friends. I’m about to throw something on the grill and get together and play some cards. A couple drinks, something to smoke and do our thing. No one’s got hatin’ in their heart.”
In a recent interview, the R&B singer said, “I’m 27 years deep in the business. I’ve been blessed to do this music for so long and I’ve got a lot of great songs under my belt. Fans love it. But I’ve got all different kinds of generations of fans now and I Have to feed everybody.”
R. Kelly’s next album, Buffet, is scheduled for release on September 25th.
