Jennifer Hudson is gearing up to release her self-titled debut album on September 30th. The Oscar-winning Dreamgirls star says fans can expect a lot of different genres on the set — ranging from pop to R&B and gospel. Hudson told Billboard that she’s not sure how fans will react to the various styles, admitting, “It is risky, because people expect you to just do one thing. I’m going to take the chance and show what else is a part of me.”
On the set is a gospel tune called “Jesus Promised Me a Home Over There,” along with the classic “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” from Dreamgirls, and “All Dressed In Love,” which was featured in the new Sex & The City movie. The 26-year-old singer teamed up with several collaborators, including Ludacris, Robin Thicke, Rock City, Timbaland, Tank and the Underdogs. R&B star Ne-Yo wrote the first single, called “Spotlight.”
