Clive Davis is executive producing the LP, and she’s also been recording with Babyface and Daryl Simmons. “I’m pretty sure it’s going to be fun working with [Andre 3000], just watching his videos and things,” she said. She hinted at the collaboration earlier this year, accidentally calling him “André 2000” in the process.

The album will feature covers of Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep”, Donna Summer’s “Last Dance”, Gladys Knight & the Pips’ “Midnight Train to Georgia”, Barbra Streisand’s “People”, Tina Turner’s “What’s Love Got to Do With It”, and more.

It sounds like this album is gonna be pretty solid. Much respect to the “Queen” for keeping soul music alive. Will you be getting your copy once it hits the shelves?
