From the moment Jennifer Hudson made her Oscar-winning debut on screen as Effie White in 2006’s Dreamgirls, fans have been wondering only one thing: When is her album dropping? More than two years in the making, the golden-throated singer’s long-awaited debut CD will finally be released on September 30, and she gave EW.com an exclusive in-studio preview.

My inside sources tell me that there is a hidden track on the CD. The mystery track is J-Hud eating all of the recording equipment that was in the studio.

I preordered through AOL (you can too) because I love her voice...I don't care what she's singing....let's give her a boost and preorder the CD otherwise, she may end up like Blake Lewis.
