Raghav is gearing up to release his second solo single at the end of August titled Let’s Work It Out. It will be the fourth single featuring him since he arrived on the British scene this year. The other two singles were with producer 2Play.

Let’s Work It Out marks the last single before he releases his debut album out on September 6 this year. It was initially due for July but the date was postponed, most likely to ensure closeness to the release of the album, entitled Storyteller.

The infectious Let’s Work It Out features UK rapper Jahzel also known as Solid Rock and is produced by Mushtaq. Remixes come from well known producers Sly & Robbie and DJ Assad & Jo Jo Yannik.

The video for the single stars British actress, the beautiful Preeya Kalidas. It will be out on August 28 so make sure you guys get it.

Raghav’s debut solo single, the brilliant Can’t Get Enough entered the British charts at number 8 earlier this year, the same spot as the last collaboration single with 2Play It Can’t Be Right, featuring Naila Boss. His first single with 2Play So Confused went as high as number 4 on the British charts.

Ashanti has said that she will be part of this year’s highly antipated Gurinder Chadha’s movie, Bride & Prejudice, which stars Bollywood’s premier actress/diva/beauty queen Aishwariya Rai.

Ashanti was speaking to Ryan Seacrest on his talkshow when she let him in on what she’s been up to, besides working hard on her upcoming third album.

“I’m acting in a Bollywood/Hollywood movie called Bride & Prejudice and it’s scheduled to be out later in the year” said the R&B princess.

“I’m very excited about it. It’s rich. It’s grand. I had to fly to India to do my scenes and I had to talk, sing and dance in Hindi too. It’s wonderful learning Hindi. I loved every moment of the movie. The cast were wonderful. It’s a very funny movie. Test audiences have loved every bit of the film so do look out for it y’all.”

The hilarious musical, Bride & Prejudice is directed by Bend It Like Beckham’s Gurinder Chandha and it stars Aishwariya Rai, Martin Henderson whose work credits include Torque, The Ring and kissing Britney Spears in her Toxic video, Ashanti, Namrata Shirodkar, Naveen Andrews, Alexis Bledel and way more.

It’s scheduled to open in the UK come October 8. No word when it’s out in US and Asia yet.

Did Chloe formerly from Clea join Fierce, an English R&B trio?

A lot of questions are being asked by fans of both groups after she was seen performing alongside the girls of Fierce, who are planning a comeback to the music scenes. Their last single hit No 3 on the charts and it was their cover of Anita Baker’s Sweet Love.

No official answers yet but it does seem weird leaving Clea, saying she wanted to carve out a solo career and joining Fierce instead.
