SANTA MONICA, Calif., June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Solange Knowles' 1st single, "I Decided," off of her forthcoming CD, SoL-AngeL and the Hadley St. Dreams enjoys the #1 spot on both Billboard's "Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles Sales" chart and the "Hot Dance Singles Sales" chart. It also lands at #2 on Billboard's "Hot Singles Sales" chart. SoL-AngeL and the Hadley St. Dreams, Solange's sophomore set, will be released on Music World Entertainment/Geffen Records on August 26th.

The album hosts a dream team of producers and guest appearances including the legendary award-winning Lamont Dozier who teams up with the newest purveyor of Soul, Mark Ronson on the sure to be classic, "6 O'clock Blues," the forever eclectic Cee-Lo lends a handwriting hand on the Soulshock & Karlin produced 2nd single, "Sandcastle Disco," the constant hit-making Pharrell Williams writes the first single "I Decided" with production from The Neptunes and remix by the Freemasons, and the formidable chart-topping Lil Wayne shares the spotlight on "ShampagneChronicKnightCap." Other dream makers on SoL-AngeL and the Hadley St. Dreams include Boards of Canada, Jack Splash, Shea Taylor, Bama Boyz, Marsha Ambrosius from Floetry, and more.

Recently wrapping The Art of Love Tour with her band, The Hadley Street Dreams, which she hand-picked, Solange found favor for her live show with the press. The Dallas Morning News said she has a "soul-pop hybrid and kittenish performance style are all her own."
