DESTINEE & PARIS' debut single, "TRUE LOVE," which is available now at all digital retailers, has already garnered nearly 500,000 views on Vevo. "TRUE LOVE" is the result of a collaboration between songwriter Lazonate Franklin and producers Carl Falk, Rami Yacoub & Swedish House Mafia's Steve Angello. Rising from a club-ready beat into a soaring hook carried by the girls, "TRUE LOVE," is an international anthem that's ready for dance floors and arenas everywhere. Angello is not the only powerhouse producer who the duo have collaborated with, GRAMMY-winning producer RedOne has also produced a significant number of tracks for the album. Also, drawing inspiration from another pair of successful sisters, Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, Destinee & Paris wrote a number of the songs for the album themselves.

Most recently, Destinee & Paris made their way into America's homes by way of the small screen appearing regularly on American Idol Season 10, for which they were hand selected to contribute backing vocals and harmonies to the contestants' performances throughout the season. These appearances earned them a spot on the official Idol soundtrack as well as on winner Scotty McCreery's debut single, "I Love You This Big." Since signing a deal with Streamline/Interscope records via Jimmy Iovine and Vincent Herbert, Destinee & Paris have been writing and recording songs for the album, a release date for which will soon be announced.
