5 Things You Didn't Know About Keyshia Cole's New Album, 'A Different Me'

Keyshia Cole is proud of where she came from. Not because she liked coming of age in foster care and serenading drug dealers on the streets of East Oakland, Cali, but because she knows her real-life success story (the one-time 'hood singer is now a two-time Grammy nominee, twice-platinum selling artist, and a former MTV Artist of the Week) is nothing short of inspirational.

And with her third album, A Different Me, Keyshia's ready to show her fans how much she's grown (look for the upcoming single, "Make Me Over") without losing herself in the process -- translation: new clothes, different hair, same ol' Keyshia.

Check out this exclusive interview and find what the new(-ish) Keyshia's all about, plus get ready to see some amazing collabos; sure, "Game's Pain" was off the hook, but we're talkin', like, Resurrection-of-Tupac amazing. And mark your calendars -- Keyshia's latest LP drops December 16th, just in time for your annual family gift exchange! (Hint, hint.)
