Goapele has been signed to Eric Benét's Jordan House Records, which previously had EMI as its distributor. Sony acquired EMI's distribution company, so if Jordan House is distributed by Sony, it would put Goapele under major label distribution again for the first time since 2006. Eric made it sound like her album should definitely be coming this year. I love all her albums, so I can't wait!

OMG... Closer & Change it All were everything to me, so I'd love to hear something fresh from her. :)

I thoroughly enjoyed her last album and still play Play like it's new so I'm excited.

As far as songs of her's that have actually been released as singles, I may rank this second only to "Closer". Love it.

It's a single of the year for me, so far. It reminds me why I loved this women to pieces when her debut came out. Can't wait for this album.

This is the first album of her's that I don't really care for. The only song I love is "Hey Boy," and I hate the addition of Snoop on the album version. The duet with Eric Benét is alright and probably my second favorite, but I don't know if I'll be going back to it much. I've loved a handful of songs, at least, on each of her previous albums, so this one is really disappointing for me.

Strong as Glass Hey Boy Insanity Perfect My Love Last Days
This is definitely her most "contemporary R&B" album to date and I think the more soulful and electronic influences that colored her previous albums made those albums more distinct. I'm thinking her affiliation with Eric Benét directly influenced the sound of this album in order to make it more Urban AC friendly but that didn't seem to work much since HB hasn't gone top-20 yet (and probably won't). That said, I like the album but don't love it.

Why did they have to add Snoop to "Hey Boy?"
