Angie Stone Is Back

[Admin]

Forty years into an iconic career, Angie Stone thought that maybe her recording days were done, even as she successfully and regularly tours the world. Then last year she was approached by SoNo Recording Group about working on a new album, a recognition by the label that Stone's millions of fans still want to hear more from the artist. And she's just delivered her second sneak peek from the upcoming disc, this time in a duet with Musiq Soulchild.

Written and produced by the team of Walter Millsap III, Elye Franklin, Balewa Muhammad, Candice C. Nelson and Teak Underdue, "The Gym" uses fitness world terminology as metaphors ("I'm declining your membership") to tell the tale of a woman who is ready to check out on a relationship that isn't working.

Stone and Musiq sounds solid in this environment, which combines some classic soul flourishes amid a modern R&B vibe. It gets us even more excited to hear the full new project. Check out "The Gym" below.
