Solange Knowles, younger sister to international pop-star Beyonce, recently inked a deal with Geffen Records and plans to release her sophomore album next year.
According to Billboard, Solange has been working out of a studio in L.A., but don't expect the result to sound anything like Beyonce.
"Her record is totally bananas," Geffen Records chairman Ron Fair said. "It's not what people would expect from her. The music is more eclectic and international. She's in her own lane."
"It's a touch of retro with beautiful R&B songs and influences of early Natalie Cole and Carole King, and she's only 22," he continued. "I'm crazy about the Pharrell Williams' record that she recently finished, called 'I Decided.' We're finishing the album now."
The disc titled Just What I Want, is the follow-up to 2003's Solo Star, which was on Columbia and is slated to hit shelves in the second quarter of 2008.
