Stevie Wonder will release two albums in 2014. He will release his David Foster collaboration When the World Began and Ten Billion Hearts.
The singer, 63, said in an interview on Tuesday that not only will be releasing these new albums next year but he’s also working on a third album.
The new music is inspired by "my children, family, change, growth, heartbreaks,” he said, NBC reports. He filed for divorce from wife Kai Millard Morris last year. They have two sons aged 7 and 10 and got married in 2001.
Wonder explained that he listens to rap a lot, “and I'm inspired to take it, to use it in another way, to get the message across.”
Some songs will be new but his collaboration album with Foster is reportedly a re-working of his previous hits which will be accompanied by a symphony orchestra.
He will also eventually record gospel album, which he promised his mother he would do before her 2006 death.
