Letoya Luckett puts aside music career for more acting gigs…

For the year 2011, will we ever get a brand new studio album from former Destiny’s Child songstress Letoya Luckett? I’d like one, and I know she’s started recording the new LP because I’ve blogged about it during the summer. That said, since she’s now enjoying a prosperous acting career, her music looks to have taken a backseat. Justin Timberlake syndrome at its finest. The 29-year-old, like Timberlake, comes from an extremely successful group and has only recorded two solo albums.
She had the leading role in the ‘Preacher’s Kid’, co-starred with Hollywood heart throb Ashton Kutcher in ‘Killers’, and taped new movie ‘From The Rough’ with Taraji P Henson. But it doesn’t stop there either. It has now been revealed that she has scored a recurring role in HBO show ‘Treme’. The drama series created by David Simon and Eric Overmyer, is based on 2005’s catastrophic Hurricane Katrina which sees the residents of New Orleans attempting to rebuild their lives.
