LOS ANGELES, July 26 (UPI) -- R&B hitmaker Babyface said he's serious about both parts of the title of his new album, his new album, "Grown & Sexy."
"I was just trying to make a sexy record and that may have be ballad-driven but still has a groove," Babyface, real name Kenneth Edmonds, says of his ninth album. "The record still has a tempo without having to make a record where I would have to dance. It's just got a groove to it, but it's still kind of ballad-oriented."
Babyface wrote or co-wrote and co-produced all 12 songs on "Grown & Sexy." In addition to his own albums, he's also written and produced for Paula Abdul, Whitney Houston, Boyz II Men, Madonna, Eric Clapton, TLC, *NSYNC, Janet Jackson and others.
He's currently producing a tribute album to the Bee Gees.
