Aretha Franklin has confirmed she is working on new material with OutKast's Andre 3000 and singer-songwriter Babyface.



Speaking at her 72nd birthday party, the singer said she is waiting for Babyface to finish his guest slot with Toni Braxton in the Broadway musical After Midnight before he can get to work on her songs.

"I'm just waiting for him to finish that so he can finish my tracks please," Franklin said. "And I think Andre 2000 - is it two or three? 3000 is going to be doing some of the tracks with him.


Earlier this month, Franklin performed at the White House alongside Patti LaBelle, Jill Scott and other soul singers. "What a shoutin' good time we had," she said. "The White House is still rocking right now!"

How is Aretha gonna come for Unlce 3stacks like that lol

i'm excited to hear that! Babyface is expected for an Aretha album. Andre would bring an interesting vibe. The last Aretha song i dug was A Rose is Still a rose.

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

All music is shit music and no music is real- gunsnhalen

^^let's hope that she cancelled that idea lol I don't want a covers album from her,anyway.With Babyface on board,I see no reason why she can't come up with an excellent album of all new songs.

I think that Destiny's Child thing was just a joke. I really don't see Aretha scraping the bottom of the barrel like that. I just hope the album gets released.
