User:Eduemoni/LeToya's second album

future album

American R&B singer LeToya is currently working on her second studio album which was scheduled to be released on June 10 2008 through Capitol Music Group. However, the album was postponed several times due to Capitol Records financial seizure, but when the merge with Virgin was finally completed, the label could stabilish itself financially. Even Luckett's management stated that risking releasing her album too early could risk Luckett's career, like what happened with Cherish's second studio album, that had no general promotion and went on to have poor first week of sales. So far LeToya has recorded enough material for two albums, but the label want to assure that it will have the right appeal. Recently, many rumors surfaced telling that LeToya is working with her former bandmate, Beyoncé Knowles, in a duet.
