Executive produced by famed producer Beau Huggins and Charli Huggins, 'TRANSITIONS' has reunited Jackson with the core team responsible for his discovery, development, and triumph. The production team includes Paul Laurence, composer of Jackson's biggest hit 'Rock Me Tonight,' Marc Nelson, formerly with the group AZ Yet, super producer Yasha, and rising star Jamaica-born producer Jason Farmer.

The 12-song album and bonus Collector's Edition DVD offers a sensual escape that will transition any true R&B fan back to the era when music and lyrics stirred the soul. 'TRANSITIONS' spotlights the vocal range and stylistic nuances that differentiate Jackson from other artists in the present highly competitive R & B marketplace. Fans of Jackson will appreciate his special tribute to the late Luther Vandross, an artist he greatly admired, with a heart-felt medley of 'Superstar' and 'Wind Beneath My Wings.'

Grammy-nominated, American Music Award winning vocalist Freddie Jackson has dominated R&B with eleven #1 singles on the Billboard charts. His contributions include such era-defining classics as 'Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times' Sake),' 'You Are My Lady,' 'Tasty Love,' 'Nice 'n' Slow' and 'Love Me Down,' For additional information on Freddie Jackson visit www.myspace.com/freddiejacksonsworld.
