Whitney Houston Announces New Album Drop Date

As Bobby Brown’s good news comes out about the birth of his new child, so does some good news for his ex-wife. Arista Records has announced that Whitney Houston’s seventh studio album will be released on September 1st. The still-untitled album is Houston’s first in seven years, and will follow her 2002 release “Just Whitney.” During her seven-year hiatus, Houston’s personal life became the subject of a number of headlines. She underwent treatment for substance abuse, and divorced husband, singer Bobby Brown, in 2007. Houston’s most recent public performance was in February at a pre-Grammy party where record producer Clive Davis announced that she was primed for a comeback. She worked on her album in LA, New York, and ATL.
