Good news for R&B fans! It seems like Ari Lennox will be joining the list of artists who dropped albums this year like Kehlani, SZA, Giveon, and more as she revealed that her highly-anticipated record is done.
According to Uproxx, the singer's previous album "Shea Butter Baby" was significantly successful, but it never got a follow-up for the next three years.
Taking to her official Twitter account, the 31-year-old songstress teased her fans by writing, "my album is done! Are you guys ready??"
As of this writing, the official release date and tracklist have not been released yet, but fans can expect new music this week as she announced that the lead single for the album titled "Hoodie" will drop this Friday, August 12.
Taking to her social media accounts, Lennox shared the official art cover of her upcoming single which shows her wearing a bedazzled one-piece hoodie while sitting on top of a glass cube box filled with water.
Ari Lennox Struggled Over the Past Year
New music seems like good news for Ari Lennox as the R&B singer had tough experiences over the past year.
In early reports, Lennox was arrested in Amsterdam for allegedly disturbing public order. She defended herself on social media, saying she was apprehended for "reacting to a woman racially profiling" her.
She also ranted about the situation, saying Amsterdam security "hates black people" and she'll never leave her house again.
The "I Been" songstress, whose real name is Courtney Shanade Salter, was in Amsterdam Schipol airport late last year where she was arrested for having aggressive behavior toward staff.
in addition, she was allegedly drunk when the incident happened.
Then in January, Lennox expressed her true feelings about her label Dreamvilel Records, saying she wanted to be "dropped from labels."
"I want to be dropped from the labels. I'm done and tired," she wrote in a tweet, which has been deleted afterward.
It appears that Lennox maintained her professional relationship with her record label as her upcoming song will be released via Dreamsville.
Lastly, the singer was disrespected in an inappropriate interview on a South African podcast, leading her to express her feelings online after being asked abut her sex life.
She noted that parts of the interview were not cut as the team promised and she was in "immense shock" at the time of their conversation.
