The Return of Brian Mcknight - New Album?
Brian McKnight is "almost done" with his first set of all-new material in three years and predicts its first single could "go to radio in the next two weeks."
"If the deadline was today, I'd be perfectly comfortable putting a record out," McKnight tells Billboard.com. "But I didn't want to rush and push anything. I wanted to let the ideas grow and evolve, naturally. As the deadline approaches I'm getting more and more creative; I wrote two songs today before I even sat down at the piano."
The as-yet-untitled album, which will be a joint venture between McKnight's own label and E1, will be his first studio since "Ten" in 2006. The singer, songwriter, musician and producer says that he's "taken some different directions" this time, ranging from "five to six Brian McKnight kind of songs that you'd expect" -- including the planned first single, "What I've Been Waiting For" -- to one track that has "a reggae feeling that I've never done before." McKnight says he's also been influenced by his sons, who are concurrently recording their own album.
"I get my songs to a certain point and take them to my oldest son and say, 'What would you do here?'," McKnight says. "I'm completely influenced by what they're doing. Their record sounds like everything from Marvin Gaye to Metallica."
McKnight's album also features duets with Stevie Wonder on a song called "Without You" and with Jill Scott on "More Than Just a Thing."

BSB RnB Album?
"...The Backstreet Boys have recorded 18 songs for their new album. Backstreet Boys management have also announce on the 1st May discontent at fans posting leaked songs, although it is not clear whether or not the leak was on purpose or not. The album sound appears to be following a more Pop/R&B Urban sound. Tracks leaked include "Bigger" produced by long time collaborator Max Martin and Masquerade produced by Brian Kennedy and Helpless produced by Jim Jonsin. The track "Hologram" by Dre featuring Chris Brown is a studio demo of the song which was recorded by Backstreet Boys back in January. Old time producers Kristian Lundin and Rami Yacoub have now reunited and now are currently working with the guys"
