Solange Knowles has decided to direct her own music video for single "Sandcastle Disco". She has taped an appearance on FNMTV on Wednesday, August 13 which will be premiered today, August 15 alongside the music video.
The video is planned as a promotional project for her sophomore album "Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams", which will be released on August 26. The album has been available for an early order on Amazon.com.
She admits that a lot of obstacles have come on her way in getting her upcoming album done. She had been refused by some producers before successfully convincing Griffin Records and coming to an agreement with Jack Splash, who then decided to produce three songs in the album, "T.O.N.Y.", "Would've Been the One", and "Ode to Marvin". She says in an interview, "I literally had to beg Cee-Lo to listen to my music but once he did he signed on immediately," states the singer. "We wrote and recorded
'T.O.N.Y' and 'Sandcastle Disco' (produced by Soul Shock) that same week.
Producer Jack 'Splash' joined in to produce 'T.O.N.Y' and went on to produce
two more songs for me: 'Would've Been the One' and 'Ode To Marvin,' my
special take on Mr. Gaye's 'What's going On,' both of which I wrote with
Splash and Makeba."
For the remainder of the album, Solange went on to work with Pharrell Williams for her first single "I Decided". Meanwhile, Lil Wayne makes a guest appearance on "Champagnechronicnightcap," and Bilal helps her write and appears on "Cosmic Journey". Meanwhile, Raphael Saadiq produces the
soulful tune "Same Song", and "Different Man" which features Estelle.
