After six years, Keke Palmer shares her unreleased album titled Waited to Exhale.
Palmer recorded the album at age 16 but in frustration with the music industry, she never allowed the record to be released. Fast forward to June 26, in a tweet to her fans, Keke finally dropped that fated project.
This 11-track project contains music all written during her tenure on the Nickelodeon show True Jackson VP. During that time, Palmer battled anxiety, and in her description of the album on SoundCloud, she said, “My anxiety, caused by the habit of unconsciously holding my breath, coupled with the stress of my personal life at that time created a lot of hard years of depression for me.”
“However, I am exalted now because God brings it to you when you are ready, not when you think you are.”
Palmer is still making music, dropping a single in “Yellow Lights” in early June.
