Are the rumors true? Will a new album from songstress exquisite Sade Adu fall onto store shelves this year?

It seems a fan site, sade2009.com, posted a release date for a yet unconfirmed Sade album as Nov. 24th 2009...which has of late been removed and replaced with text on the line of "album to come soon". Apparently labelmate Maxwell has heard a track or two and has given the nod of serious approval.

Sade's last album, 2000's Lovers Rock sold upwards of 4 million copies was accompanied by a 30-date North American tour.

I'm definitely ready to hear some new material from Nigerian songstress Folasade, whenever that may be.
