Lyfe Jennings Saying Goodbye with One Final Album and Tour

08/26/2010
.
Lyfe Jennings will release what he has called his "final" studio album on August 31st via Jesus Swings/Asylum/Warner Bros. Records. Lyfe will also embark on a national tour this fall for one last hurrah with his fans.

Regarding his decision to step-away from recording, Lyfe is grateful for all the support over the years. "To my fans/friends, we've had a hell of a ride," he says. "Some of us will reach our destinations faster than others, but I thank you for traveling with me, supporting my every step. We are only human and human is only temporary. Thank you for seeing my spirit. Pray for my next journey guys, it's been great."

Executively produced by Lyfe Jennings, the album features contributions from Canadian producer T-Minus (Ludacris, Drake, LeToya Luckett), Brian Michael Cox, Erik Hudson and Troy Taylor. Fellow soul-singer Anthony Hamilton, the album's only feature, graces the soaring track "Hero."

The 13-disc track is what Lyfe considers a reflection of his "greatness," the magnum opus of a career that stirred up heartfelt and no-nonsense musings about social problems and the saving grace that is love. Despite the personal and public trials in his life, Lyfe Jennings still believes in this love. "I keep a lot going on. It's tragic; I think I have a horribly charmed life. But I think God puts me through stuff and keeps me there so I can talk about it."

He carries these experiences into the album. "[The album] is about all kinds of relationships," says Lyfe. "How we try to hold on sometimes for the sake of holding on. But, in reality, no matter how many breakups turn into make-ups, sooner or later we realize that this person is who they are and we need to let go. No grudges, no regrets. Just realization. Just acceptance. Just life."

Tracklisting is as follows:

1. Statistics
2. Love
3. It Coulda Been Worse
4. Spotlight
5. Busy
6. Whatever She Wants
