Group 1 Crew's Former Member Blanca Talks about Solo Album and Reveals New Single Release Date (VIDEO INTERVIEW)

Christian singer Blanca chatted with BreatheCast at the K-LOVE Fan Awards 2014 where she discussed her new solo project, being a mom, and revealed a potential date for her upcoming single.

Blanca is a former member of the band Group 1 Crew, but was on the red carpet for the first time as a newly turned solo artist. The singer was extremely excited about the next season in her life and said, "I am currently working on my first solo project, which is amazing."

Blanca and her husband Ben Callahan had their first child in 2013. Her split with her long time band member Manwell Reyes, who is the only remaining member of Group 1 Crew, was announced shortly after the birth of her baby boy, London.

Blanca, seeming happier than ever said, "It's been awesome just to be mommy and then work on my own music." She went on to say, "I'm super excited for people to just hear my heart and hear the new songs and the new music."

She then revealed, "I'm hoping for a single this fall and then a record in the beginning of next year," but added that if it happens to be delayed to "cut her some slack."

The songstress announced her departure from the popular Christian hip-hop group in November of 2013. She released a video statement along with a written letter on Group1Crew.com.

"This decision did not come easy," the statement said, "but after months of prayer, we knew that it was the right one. It will be sad for me to leave the Group 1 Crew family, but I am confident God is in this transition. Looking back, Group 1 Crew has been ten of the most amazing years of my life. When I first started with the group, I was a 17-year-old new believer in Christ who was terrified of the stage. I will forever be grateful to the Lord for placing Manny and Pablo in my life at that time."

Things are certainly looking up for the singer as she records her first solo album with Word Records.
