Soul legend Aretha Franklin is preparing a new album of covers, which - as previously reported - is to be helmed by Outkast’s André 3000.
Tentatively due out in September, the LP will see Franklin taking on tracks by Adele, Donna Summer, Barbra Streisand, Tina Turner and more. The Adele cover will, of course, be “Rolling In The Deep”.
