Solange Dishes On New Album, “There are a lot of songs about sex.”

In addition to being a new auntie, Solange is opening up about a new album in the works, that she’s funding herself. In a recent interview with V, Solange dishes on what folk can expect from her new sound. Peep a few excerpts:

On what fans can expect to hear:

“There are a lot of songs about sex…It’s the kind of record you put on when your man is coming over, when you’re with your girls. There are songs that make you wanna dance because we were kind of partying our way through the record, but it’s very chill.”

On the sound that fans can expect:

“My references for the record were all Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, not just their typical Janet and Prince stuff, but SOS Band and their b-sides with Chaka Khan. At first the songs were really dark because I had a premonition before the record that I was going to die. I was having panic attacks and wilding out.”
