The successor to A Seat At The Table is on its way, according to Solange.

Solange has revealed that she's putting the final touches on a new album. In an interview with T: The New York Times Style Magazine, the singer said that the release of the album is "imminent this fall, probably sometime soon."

Solange spoke further on the forthcoming project, saying:

"There is a lot of jazz at the core. But with electronic and hip-hop drum and bass because I want it to bang and make your trunk rattle."

She also described the album as "warm" and "fluid and more sensual" than A Seat At The Table.

"I realize how much wider, figuratively and literally, my work could be if I took myself away as subject," she said.

Solange previously spoke about working on new music earlier this year. While speaking with Billboard the singer talked about working with the Internet's Steve Lacy.

"He's like, 'OK, I got these chords.' 'Hey, papa, let's go!'" Solange said of jamming with Lacy. In that same interview, she also said she's "not interested in entertainment" at the moment.

"That might change. There might be a moment where I decide, 'Hey, I love the game,'" she said. "For right now, I'm not [there]."

Fortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Recently, the "Cranes in the Sky" artist sat down with Earl Sweatshirt to discuss singer Ariana Grande, wigs, Mudras, their mutual affection for Philly rapper Tierra Whack, Earl's plans for a transition into being a full-time youth basketball coach, and more.
