gwen's new album - akan datang 5 dec

Gwen Stefani's new album, The Sweet Escape (12/05/06), is a bit of a departure from her debut solo effort, Love. Angel. Music. Baby.

Whereas that album had a definitely retro feel, Gwen wanted to work with a different sonic pallet for the new record. It sounds very current. Fresh. And different.

The song Yummy is a perfect example of the direction Stefani has taken for The Sweet Escape. It's like Peaches meets Kelis with a dash of Outkast. Or, as Gwen describes it in the song, it's "disco Tetris."

Yummy is very autobiographical, with Stefani singing about everything from motherhood to what motivated her to do a second solo album, and (of course) name-checking L.A.M.B. (her fashion label) along the way.
