Robin Thicke is bringing fans a brand-new album just in time for Valentine’s Day.

On Monday, Thicke announced on Twitter that his upcoming project, On Earth, and in Heaven, will officially drop on February 12. Along with the announcement, Thicke included a preview trailer which shows snippets of his past work and a tease of some of his new songs.

On Earth, and in Heaven will mark the R&B crooner’s first full-length project in six years and the debut release under his new partnership with Empire and his imprint, Lucky Music.

“I feel like I’m finally the person I set out to be,” Thicke said in a statement. “I’m able to laugh at anything, which I’ve realized is the greatest superpower. I’ve fully embraced it, and nothing has been better for my soul.”

“When I saw the phrase On Earth, and in Heaven, I realized that’s what I’m singing about: the people who aren’t here and the people who are here that made me who I am,” he continued. “This music is the sunshine coming out after the rain.”

Thicke’s album release news comes after his hit single, “That’s What Love Can Do,” hit #1 on the Urban AC charts. That song was followed by “Forever Mine,” and “Fire It Up,” which was released last month as a part of the NFL’s “Songs of the Season” series.
