Nick Carter will be the first member of the Backstreet Boys...
Nick Carter will be the first member of the Backstreet Boys to release a solo album. He told Launch the album doesn’t have a release date yet, but he's thinking September. Says Carter, 'Right now I've been in the studio, and I've got, like, over 30 songs recorded.' Carter promises fans that the Backstreet Boys sound will be present on the album, but he also plans to rock a little harder too: 'Of course, I can't stray too far away from what I've done, so I'm stuck with that.” Carter said it will be 'interesting to see how the public accepts it,' but he's also getting some personal satisfaction from the project -- 'so it's going to be cool.' He said his decision to release a solo album doesn’t mean the end of Backstreet Boys. 'We're not breaking up,' said Carter. 'I mean, everybody's all, like, worried: 'Nick's doing this and the Backstreet Boys are over,' and all this stuff. I mean, you know, I've been in the group for 10 years, since I was 12, so I mean, I'm 22 now and I really want to try something new.' That’s Kids in the News. Check back next week.
