There’s no slowing down what Babyface is cooking up these days. As the countdown for his Girls Night Out album continues to heat up, the veteran crooner pulls through with help from Kehlani on their new ‘Seamless’ anthem.

Babyface and Kehalni body their Seamless hit

The duo perfectly fit on the latest tune off his upcoming album. It also follows his recent collaboration with fellow crooner and United Kingdom musician Ella Mai.

Twelve-time GRAMMY® Award winner Babyface and multi-Platinum singer-songwriter Kehlani team up on “Seamless,” released today by Capitol Records. The song offers a frank look at a night out that’s filled with drama, thanks to a partner who always makes a scene. Kehlani takes the lead on vocals, with Babyface on backing vocals. They wrote the track – which is from Babyface’s forthcoming project, Girls Night Out – with The Rascals (Drake, Chris Brown, Ariana Grande), who produced alongside Babyface.

“I worked with Kehlani many years ago and I am just so proud of who she has become as an artist and also how well she knows herself and her fans,” says Babyface. “I am really honored to have her collaborate with me many years later for such a special project and I love the song we created. Kehlani is one of one and a true superstar.”

“Seamless” follows Babyface’s collaboration with Ella Mai, “Keeps On Fallin,’”which is the first single from Girls Night Out. Vibe praised “Keeps On Fallin’” as “dreamy” and ThisIsRnB hailed it as a “classic Babyface track, with a modern R&B vibe.”

Girls Night Out, which will be released on October 21, is a sonic journey through love, heartbreak and all of the emotions in between. The album features the legendary singer/songwriter/producer’s collaborations with some of today’s brightest female R&B stars, including Queen Naija, Ari Lennox, Doechii and many others. Like his iconic Waiting to Exhale soundtrack, the new project taps into a range of subject matter as each of his collaborators share stories from their personal point of views and experiences.

Babyface’s ‘Keeps On Fallin’’ anthem is a must-hear

Seemingly out of nowhere, Baby dropped the single on a New Music Friday. The song is from his upcoming studio effort.

Babyface & Ella Mai collaborate together for the very first time on the timeless new single “Keeps On Fallin.’” With her silky, soulful vocals, Ella Mai extols a longtime lover who can still give her butterflies. Babyface weighs in, reminding her that she’s the inspiration for this lasting love. The dreamy jam interpolates “Can We Talk,” Tevin Campbell’s 1993 hit, which Babyface wrote and produced with Daryl Simmons.

“Keeps On Fallin’” – which marks Babyface’s first release since signing to Capitol Records – is from his forthcoming project. He produced the track with D'Mile (H.E.R., Silk Sonic, Ty Dolla $ign).

Babyface and Ella Mai speak on linking up

Since the record dropped, both Babyface and Ella have dished on putting their talent together on the must-hear tune.

“When I first heard Ella’s voice, I thought, ‘what an incredible and distinctive voice, I have to get in the studio with her!Babyface recalls. “Well, I did…and it was everything I imagined and more!”

“Working with Babyface was an absolute dream come true for me,” says Ella Mai. “To be welcomed and praised by someone so talented and acclaimed, I couldn’t have asked for our ‘Keeps On Fallin’ sessions to be any better. We sang, we wrote, we laughed and we talked. Babyface is so humble and a pleasure to work with, I hope this record is the start of many more.”
