Whitney Houston’s gospel album I Go To The Rock will be released in March with SIX new songs

Whitney Houston has new music coming out even though she passed away 11 years ago in Beverly Hills.

On Thursday it was announced that a documentary TV special, corresponding album and DVD with her gospel music will come out soon.

The docu is called I Go to the Rock: The Gospel Music of Whitney Houston.

The new album will feature six never-before-released songs from as early as 1981; the first single is Testimony which dropped Thursday. There will also be gospel songs from the soundtracks of The Preacher’s Wife, Sparkle and The Bodyguard. 

This comes after she was honored by Jennifer Hudson at a pre-Grammy party on Saturday.

‘Full of soul and power, Whitney’s voice is no stranger to gospel music,’ the note on her Instagram page said.

‘Gaither Television Productions presents I Go To The Rock, an album of her beloved gospel music, featuring 6 previously unreleased recordings,’ it was also shared.

‘Listen to her sing Testimony at age 17 and to preorder the album that tracks her gospel music journey ✨.’

The unreleased songs include a live VH1 Honors version of Simon & Garfunkel’s Bridge Over Troubled Water.

There will also be I Found a Wonderful Way, He Can Use Me and Testimony.

The documentary will premiere March 24 on UPtv and Aspire TV. 

The movie looks at Houston’s faith, her career rise, and her performances. 

The feature is hosted by gospel singer CeCe Winans, whose birth name is Priscilla Marie Winans Love.

Pat Houston, the executor of the Estate of Whitney E. Houston, calls the project ‘a testament of Whitney’s heart.’

It was added: ‘Her love for gospel music permeates through every song with love, compassion and conviction. 

‘To love Whitney is to love what she represents to all that love the gospel. I salute this project knowing that Whitney always stood on a solid rock for her love of gospel music.’

Houston died from mixing a cocktail of Xanax and other powerful prescription drugs with alcohol, it was reported in 2012.

Her family has allegedly been told by Los Angeles County Coroner officials there was not enough water in her lungs to conclude she had drowned in her luxury hotel bathtub and in fact died before her head went under water, said gossip website TMZ.

The revelations come as it emerged that her daughter Bobbi Kristina, 18, allegedly fell asleep in a bathtub in the same Beverly Hilton hotel just 24 hours before her mother died. 

TMZ claims security was called to unlock the door and to help the 18-year-old on that occasion.

Houston’s ex-husband Bobby Brown, with whom she had a notoriously turbulent 14-year relationship riddled with drug use, was in Nashville at the time of her death and his daughter’s trips to the hospital.

Brown – whom she blamed partly for her drug issues – was said to be ‘in and out of crying fits’ upon hearing the news of her death.

But he still appeared on stage on with his band New Edition.

He cried out ‘I love you, Whitney!’ in the middle of the concert.
