Good news for Brandy fans who have anxiously been awaiting new music. The singer is hard at work on her sixth studio album which will hit stores in the first quarter of the new year.

On the new collection of tunes, Brandy is working with singer, songwriter and rapper Frank Ocean. The singer has called the collaboration with the famed artist a great fit with "great chemistry.""We both understand music in the same ways," Brandy recently told BET. "To work with him on this album was great as well, and I hope I can get in [the studio] with him some more because his music is just so moving; I'm inspired by him. I think he's a great artist and he hasn't even touched on what he will touch on in the future."

The forthcoming R&B album is also said to include other hit makers including Chris Brown and Rico Love. The yet to be titled new album from Brandy is slated for release in March 2012. Other projects in the works for the new year for Brandy will be her joining the cast of Tyler Perry's 'The Marriage Counselor.' Sounds like our girl is keeping busy! We can't wait to hear -- and see -- what she has in store.
