Since winning the second season of American Idol in 2003, Ruben Studdard's impact on the music charts has been impressive.
His single Flying Without Wings debuted at #2 on the Hot 100, and his version of Superstar peaked at #2 on the R&B chart.
In December 2003, his first album, Soulful, had advance orders of over a million copies, which automatically qualified it for platinum certification and allowed the record to enter the Billboard 200 at #1.
Studdard's new album, Love IS, helmed by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, is scheduled for release on May 19 through a joint venture with Hickory Records and 19 Recordings. The album is a collection of love songs featuring original recording as well as covers of classic hits.
