Many of you might be expecting some songs of mine but out of my album. I started a new project with new people so this is a song in the works. It's one of my most treasured songs so I would like to sing it here today just for you guys. The title hasn't been decided yet. I'll show you my unreleased song. Can you enjoy the song with me?
