Aretha Franklin previews new album
The Queen of Soul gave a select group of family, friends and local reporters and celebrities a sneak peak at some of the new music from her forthcoming album, Aretha: A Woman Falling Out of Love. The lucky crowd convened in a downtown Detroit restaurant for the listening party.
Franklin says the new release was inspired by an ex-relationship. The result is a dozen songs, including one juicy track featuring a sexy smooth recitation by actor Billy Dee Williams that Franklin says is “sizzling!
The new album, due out in late March, is executive produced by Aretha, who also wrote and produced a few of the songs. Aretha Franklin tickets and a tour surely can’t be far behind.
