Jazmine Sullivan announced she was Fearless in 2008 when she released her debut album. And while the LP shares a title with the [article id="1630904"]Taylor Swift album[/article] released the same year, it was vastly different in musical style, thanks to help from Missy Elliott, Stargate, Salaam Remi and Wyclef Jean.

Two years later, Sullivan is back with her follow-up, Love Me Back, and she gets an assist again from Elliott and Remi, as well as contributions from Ne-Yo, No I.D. and Los da Mystro. When MTV News caught up with Sullivan, she explained that she hoped to overcome the sophomore slump on this project.

"This is my sophomore album, I definitely felt a lot of pressure during the beginning of it, but I kind of just released it and that's when everything started to flow," Sullivan said. "So I'm excited what people have to say about it."

The singer has released two singles -- "Holding You Down (Goin' in Circles)" and "10 Seconds" -- from the album, which has been getting high scores from reviewers. Sullivan said this time around she wanted to show fans a different side of herself.

"I think you'll definitely see a softer side," she said. "You'll still get some fire -- I can't give that up -- but definitely going to get a softer side. There are different sides of love, good and bad."
