First Waka Flocka Flame, now R. Kelly...
According to Vibe magazine, the R&B crooner is working on a House-music album.
The magazine's site reports that Kellz made the big reveal to the crowd at the Chosen Few DJ's picnic this past week.
"I want ya'll to know a secret, I'm working on a House album right now, and I want ya'll to know it's comin!," he said. "I love music and I feel like I can do anything when it comes to music, because I am music."
He previously announced plans for White Panties, the sequel to his 2013 album Black Panties.
He most recently released his greatest hits collection The Essential R. Kelly, while a holiday album entitled 12 Nights of Christmas is also in the works.
As previously reported, Waka Flocka Flame recently announced that he would be fusing EDM and hip-hop for an album.
Waka revealed that his crossover project would be titled Turn Up God and of course he called on the big names for his forthcoming album.
"Diplo, Steve Aoki, The Zombie Kids, Borgore, DJ Carnage and I just did this remix of Dillon Francis' new record, that s**t's about to be mayhem," Waka told XXL. "I've got DJ Mayhem. F**k, we're going to get everybody, you know what I mean? I f**ked with EDM through Europe though, not through America. So I went through EDM in Europe and I came to America and everybody is like, you got to come over here with it now."
Waka says Turn Up God will drop in fall.
It looks like crossing over to EDM and House may be a new trend for hip-hop and R&B artists.
