Tank Talks “You’re My Star”, “Stronger” Album, Jerry Wonda & More [Video]

Tank is on a mission to make a bold comeback, delivering classic feel-good R&B with a 2014 twist. ThisisRnB TV caught up with the singer/songwriter in NYC for a new interview to discuss his new single “You’re My Star,” his upcoming album ‘Stronger,’ and outlook on life. In this clip, Tank takes us through the creative process of making and recording “You’re My Star,” which started off from a sample of the Jackson 5 classic “This Place Hotel,” and with the help of master producer Harvey Mason Jr. turned into the lively, soulful tribute to woman everywhere that we hear now. We had to know though, will Tank be taking a break from the classic baby-makin’ tunes that we’ve come to expect from him? “There are a few moments where you would want to make a baby,” explains Tank about the new album. “But, I think that it’s not a transition out of that, it’s an album that speaks to a different place that I am in my life and my career.” Part of the inspiration behind the new sound came from a meeting Tank had with Grammy-winning producer Jerry Wonda, who ended up creating at least 4 of the records on the LP, one of which will be the second single, and a sound which not only celebrates women with tempo, but celebrates real music and having fun in life.
