Whitney to record a song for the new Tyler Perry movie soundtrack!
Whitney's back and she's wasting no time getting back into the studio. Houston alongside her famous singing family {mama Cissy Houston and cousin Dionne Warwick} are going to record a track for the new Tyler Perry movie soundtrack, "Daddy's Little Girls." Good things are happening for Miss Houston.
~~~~~~
"Producer Damon Elliott, the son of singing legend Dionne Warwick, has managed to get his mother and famous cousins-Whitney and her mother Sissy Houston-in the studio to record a track for the new Tyler Perry film, "Daddy's Little Girls."
The song, entitled "Family Comes First," will feature all three of the family members and is the first announced song from the soundtrack. The movie stars Gabrielle Union as a successful attorney who falls in love with a financially challenged mechanic (Idris Elba) who is a single father of three children. The relationship hits a snag when the janitor's ex-wife comes back into his life and threatens to take away their kids.
Explaining the significance of bringing family together to record "Family Comes First," Elliott says: "Our goal is to blossom the challenges of life into a rainbow of music and we're the perfect family unit to do so."
Elliott also served as producer of his mother's 45th anniversary celebration duet album "My Friends & Me," due Nov. 7 with guests Mya, Cyndi Lauper, Da Brat, Debra Cox, Reba McEntire, Kelis, Gladys Knight, Angie Stone, Chante Moore, Olivia Newton-John and more.
"I'm thrilled to be back in the studio and this time with my son. With 45 years in the music industry I've had an amazing career," said Warwick. "I've had the pleasure of working with some of the world's greatest musical minds in the business. Just being able to commemorate this phase in my life and work with artist I personally enjoy is truly a blessing."
