Here to Stay (Kenny Lattimore album)

Here to Stay is the tenth studio album by American singer Kenny Lattimore. His first album in four years, it was released through his own label, Sincere Soul Records, in partnership with the SoNo Recording Group on December 3, 2021. A mentoring effort to spotlight producer and frequent collaborator Drak-Kar "Madicin" Wesley, it was primarily assembled and led by him, while Lattimore brought longtime creative partners such Daryl Simmons, Darren "Champ" Jenkins and Lee Major on board.

Critics praised Here to Stay as a testament to Lattimore's enduring artistry, blending classic and modern R&B, though some noted the absence of a standout single and a few weaker tracks. While the album failed to chart, it produced two of Lattimore's highest-charting singles in more than two decades, with third single "Take a Dose" becoming his second number-one hit on the US Adult R&B Songs chart and follow-up and final single "Never Knew" also entering the chart's top ten.
