From MTV's website:

J Records honcho Clive Davis promises that a new album from Whitney Houston is in the works, explaining that they're currently working on songs together and have already picked out six that she'll record. But don't expect Whitney to change the way she works or her creative style for her comeback album — she won't be writing, and she won't be doing anything that her producers say could be musically groundbreaking. "Whitney doesn't write," Davis said. "It's a gift — you either got it or you don't. I've seen more artists lose a career over trying to do that. Ella Fitzgerald didn't write. Lena Horne didn't write. Whitney is Whitney, and there ain't nobody like her. It'll be Whitney. It won't be somebody reaching for a current trend, that's for sure." Davis said they'll be heading to the studio in a few weeks. ...

Did she run out of money to buy coke with?

There's no need for her to change her style just because a few years have passed. She still fits right in with the type of music she helped to dominate the airwaves....slow, boring, and not a damn ounce of funk in it.

Go funk yourself!

Bobby O.D'd one night and had to be taken to the E.R. While there the doctor said that he'd have to administer a drug test. Bobby jumped up off the exam table and ran out into the night. It sounds like him.

Why is it that EVERY SINGLE TIME somebody mentions Whitney Houston on the org, you all have to post these stupid jokes about her drug habit?
It`s getting old...

Nick715, I`m looking forward to the new album, thanks for posting
She`s also recorded a new duet with Dionne (Warwick), for Dionne`s new duet album, which hopefully will be released soon...

Just posting...

It's messed up that she hasn't written much in her career...

why don't they have a studio in rehab? two for one.

ABeautifulOne said:

Right. It's also messed up that I wasn't born into Bill Gates' family.

I don't understand why she doesn't write...she probably has a whole lot to say. Stubborn! And she refuses to do anything new...I guess we can count on another "Just Whitney" and not a "My Love Is Your Love".....

I heard that Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon, Babyface, Pharrell Williams, Rodney Jerkins, and Missy Elliott were supposed to make contributions to this anticipated comeback. Another My Love Is Your Love-styled record anybody?

TonyVanDam said:

Yes I heard this also. They had pics when he left the hispital that night. It was said that he jumped off that table because if that drug test was positive it would have been a violation of his probation-hence the running into the night.

TonyVanDam said:

Those sex toys cost money too.

Well nobody buying the album can say they were surprised then.

silverchild said:

Have any R&B producers made any impact on music since (and please don't say Scott Short), I don't know, 1998? Those people are all talented and great, but it's a bunch of people she's all worked with (expect for Pharrell and Lil' Jon, I think).

Icicle said:

could it be because at this point, her career is based on her drug addiction?

We´ll see, but it would be cool if she recorded some great music cause no matter what has happened that lady´s got voice!

sosgemini said:

How is her career based on a drug addiction? She's not a drug dealer is she?The reason why people love to bring up her personal demons is because it's great fodder for gossip - and we all love to tear people down every now and then.

chuckaducci said:

the only reason her name is kept in circulation is due to her drug problems...

FuNkeNsteiN said:

She'd overdose before she runs out of money. She's being paid to sit on her ass and not sign with anyone else.
Got that Richard Pryor kind of deal.
Mariah Carey got paid off, Whitney got $100,000,000 to sit tight.

nurse said:

That's cause unlike her Bobby keeps getting busted and rehabs in jail.
