    Tyrese Gibson has created some memorable music and videos over the years. But, as he prepares for the release of his upcoming album Black Rose, coming July 10, he may be presenting one of his most riveting ones yet. Tyrese produced the song "Shame" with Warryn Campbell and it features the legendary Wah Wah Watson on guitar.

    The accompanying video is a winner, produced by Denzel Washington and featuring Academy Award winning and Grammy nominated, Jennifer Hudson (who also adds backing vocals), it tells the story of a man who has jeopardized his family and his life for his shameful behavior. Tyrese says about the song, "Shame is my most transparent song to date. I wish I could say that the inspiration behind this was me breaking one heart, but I have broken many hearts from being a man who assumed that because you used the words ‘I LOVE YOU’ that I really knew what love was," describes Gibson, "I discovered I knew nothing of what love is. You will grow through what you go through. I have put some beautiful hearts and innocent people through hell and I’m ashamed of it. That's my truth,  and my truth  produced this moment. Please enjoy Shame."
