JHUD is the third studio album by American singer and actress Jennifer Hudson. It was released on September 23, 2014, by RCA Records as the follow-up to I Remember Me (2011).[1] The album marks Hudson's first and only release through RCA following the closure of Arista and J Records.

The 1970s-inspired album has already spawned the Pharrell-produced single "I Can't Describe (The Way I Feel)" featuring T.I. and the Timbaland-produced "Walk It Out", for which she shot the music video in Chicago. On August 18, 2014, Hudson released the single, "Dangerous", via her Vevo and SoundCloud accounts. The single "It's Your World" featuring R. Kelly was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance.[2] In 2019, as a reaction to the documentary Surviving R. Kelly, Kelly's featured song, "It's Your World", was removed from all digital editions of the album. However, it was later returned.

The single "I Still Love You" was nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for Best Video with a Message[3] and the album was named the "Best R&B/Soul Album" by iTunes.[4]
