Ready to hear some beautiful Musiq?

 

Musiq Soulchild is putting on the finishing touches on his sixth album MusiqInTheMagiq, with a planned release date of May 3rd.

The set, which follows 2008’s ‘OnMyRadio,’ is lead by the first single “Anything” featuring producer/rapper Swizz Beatz. "It's a feel-good record," Musiq says. "It's real high-energy, uptempo. People really respond well to those kinds of records. It's a song Jerry Wonda had, and I thought it was pretty cool. The label seemed to like it. We're all collectively attempting to push things into a slightly new direction -- more of a crossover, more of a pop appeal. But I definitely always contribute my soulful element, my personal vibe." The track is currently sitting well on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Then comes the aptly-titled “single” and “silver&gold,” all spelled out in lowercase.
