Letoya

As an original member of Destiny's Child, LeToya co-wrote the group's signature songs 'Bills Bills Bills' and 'Say My Name'. Now LeToya makes a comeback as an independent woman with her self-titled solo album.

LeToya flexes her soulful roots on lead single 'Torn', the most emotional and personal song on the album. LeToya's vocals and lyrics detail the struggle she's experiencing in a strained relationship that means the world to her. She was inspired to write as soon as she heard the beat, which features a sample of The Stylistics' classic 'You Are Everything'.

The album contains a quality mix of musical sounds and styles. As part of the biggest selling group of the last decade, the ones who helped put Houston on the modern music map, LeToya felt it was important to rep her city throughout her album. No song does a better job of that than 'Gangsta Grill'. The future smash features Mike Jones and Killa Kyleone, and features LeToya saluting her city, from the grills to the cars to the type of men found there to the city's homegrown music.

With the upbeat, Scott Storch-produced 'I'm Good', LeToya dismisses a no-good man, while on the sassy 'She Don't', she sings from the perspective of a woman who realizes that her man will never find a woman on her level. She then explores the pain that comes with a haphazard engagement on the moving ballad 'Obvious'. LeToya delivers two more uptempo smashes with 'Tear Da Club Up' with Bun B and 'All Eyes On Me', which features Paul Wall and Slim Thug.
