(10/4/02, 7 a.m. ET) -- Jaheim is currently on the Seagram's Gin Live tour with Truth Hurts and Biz Markie, and he will release his sophomore album, Still Ghetto, on November 5. The set was produced by Eddie F., KayGee, Malik Pendleton, Wesley Hogges, Michael Williams, Eric Williams, Kelly G., and T.O. Former Bad Boy Entertainment hit producer Stevie J. lends his songwriting skills to two cuts as well.
When LAUNCH spoke to Jaheim, he made it clear that this time around he was very selective when picking his songwriters. "I hope the fans love it. I think they gonna love it because this album is more what I want and not everybody else making songs for me, like a puppet. See, basically what I'm saying is when I worked on the last album, I didn't get what I wanted. I mean, I took it and it came out beautiful because I had to make it that way. I had to do what I had to do. I felt like people were just giving me anything and I had to make the best of it."
The Still Ghetto tracklisting includes: "Intro" featuring Duganz, "Diamond In Da Ruff," "Fabulous" featuring Tha Rayne, "Let's Talk About It," "Put That Woman First," "Beauty And A Thug" featuring Mary J. Blige, "Me And My B-tch," "Backlight," "Special Day," "Long As I Live," "Interlude," "Everywhere I Am," "Tight Jeans," and "What You Want." Remaining Seagram's Gin Live tour dates (subject to change): October 4 - Columbia, SC - Whispers October 5 - Miami, FL - Billboard Live October 8 - Tampa, FL - Club 901 October 9 - Atlanta, GA - Club Kaya October 10 - Richmond, VA - John Marshall Hotel October 11 - Baltimore, MD - Hammerjack's October 12 - Washington, DC - VIP Club October 13 - New York, NY - Shadow Nightclub October 17 - San Francisco, CA - Sound Factory October 18 - Los Angeles, CA - TBA
