There’s no doubt that Naturi Naughton‘s career launched into the stratosphere when she took the role of Tasha St. Patrick on the crime series “Power,” but long before that she developed a fan base as a singer in the group 3LW.
It has been quite some time since the New Jersey native was heard on a new album or single, but on Sunday she said new tunes are on the way. Plus, the producer Eric Hudson, whom she grew up with in East Orange, New Jersey, will be handling the production responsibilities.
Hudson has produced for a who’s-who list of artists, like Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent, Brandy and Kendrick Lamar.
“Blessed2 be working with my AMAZINGLY talented friend @ehudsonmusic,” wrote Naughton 🔥. “We grew up in Jersey at #NewHopeBaptistChurch (in E.O.) together and NOW, 20 years later, we making HITS!!! #NaturiMusic #ComingSoon #EricHudson#Jersey #LetsGooo #StayWoke 🔥🔥🔥🔥.”
Although folks usually express how much they love the actress and singer on “Power,” they showed equal excitement about the new music she’ll be dropping.
“Cant wait to hear your solo music @naturi4real ❤️❤️🔥🔥…time for you to shine..back into the music I will support,” someone wrote under the post. “One of the beautiful ladies in #3LW God Bless You.”
“Can’t wait to hear this!! I wanna be one of the first to play this! #Jersey #EO,” wrote someone else.
Some people also brought up Naughton’s former 3LW group member Kiely Williams, whom Naughton spoke about on Sunday during an episode of TV One’s “Uncensored.”
The “Power” star said that some years ago Williams threw a plate of chicken and mashed potatoes in her face during a disagreement. It’s something that Williams denied, but people have been blasting her anyway.
“20 years later and a b-tch still worried about you!” one person commented. “Yasssss girl let them know you making hits tuhdayyy.”
“Sis doing movies, shows and music..If I was Keloid I would be bitter too,” someone else weighed in. “Ha! Thought she was the chosen one. playa pleathe”
As far as “Power,” it’s scheduled to return sometime this year.
