R&B/Soul legend Lalah Hathaway has just released her new album “VANTABLACK”.
This is her eighth studio album overall and comes via the Hathaway Entertainment/SRG-ILS Group (Virgin Music Group) label imprint.
The 16-track project features an all-star line-up that includes the likes of; Common, MC Lyte, Rapsody, Michael McDonald, Phonte, Gerald Albright and WILLOW. Lalah adds about the project:
“VANTABLACK was always the name of the project. I started reframing how I saw color, in terms of being the blackest I’ve ever been and even though I’m steeped in who I am, it doesn’t exclude the other things that make up the sum of me. Similar to how all the music around me informs the black music that I create. So it’s all a melting pot of all of me.”
The project is lead by the single “So In Love” which first released earlier this year. The song has reached the top 20 on the Billboard Adult R&B Charts, currently sitting at #18.
In addition to the release of the new album, Lalah Hathaway has also announced her upcoming “VANTABLACK TOUR” set to land in cities across the country.
