Three big-name artists are scheduled to release their highly anticipated new albums for the upcoming summer. In fact, mark your calendar for April 24. That is when Janet Jackson?s new album, “All For You,” hits stores. Her first single is already making history.

Another big-name artist, Usher, is planning to release his much-anticipated third album, “All About U” on July 17. It was originally scheduled to be out on April 17, but it was pushed back due Napster?s court case.

Also coming out is the new album from Destiny?s Child. Their first single, “Survivor,” has already hit the airwaves on both MTV and BET.

The album was originally scheduled to be out April 24, but because of the release of Janet Jackson?s album, the album has been pushed back another week. The new date is May 1.

Other big-name artists such as Aaliyah, Juvenile, and Michael Jackson plan to release their new albums later on in the summer.
